Get rid of those fishermen once and for all.

The only time fishermen bug me is when I'm riding and they are following right behind us from like a couple hundred feet back. But really that applies to any boaters or jetskiers.

I realize this is a wakeboarding site! I'm just saying that we need to realize that so many fishermen and other peeps have been coming to the lake for years for a safe peaceful getaway. You can park your boat in a parking lot for crowds and loud music.....I'm just saying we should be respectful of each other.....they are getting their kicks too..... Neutral

The whole reason of putting tower speakers and expensive sound systems in boats is so you can listen to them and party on the lake. If you wanted to party in the parking lot put a system in your car. Does a loud stereo on a boat really affect the fisherman? I could understand if you pull up next to a fisherman and sit there and blare your music but most wakeboarders drive up and down the lake, therefore scaring the fish everywhere.

i had a fisher pull up behind me while i was riding and i wiped out...he almost ran over my a$$... it sucked. but most fishers are fine, they mostly sit around and mind their own buisness

wow. was it intentional? That's just poor. I try to give the fishers their little coves and whatnot, but when I'm riding I'm not driving and I'm not sure my friends are cognizant of pissing off drunk or potentially dangerous fishers. Not saying all fishers are drunk here.
