    What is with the pleasure boaters putting off 6 foot waves coming into a creek, passsing only yards from you when it is obvious that you are fishing? And then, they all look at you and wave like "hi....hope you capsize and the fishing is terrible for the next 15 minutes!". Then to only turn around a few yards into the creek and blow back by you in the same manner! That is what the main lake is for IMO. And its not only the pleasure boaters....I several guys cut me right off on the bank I was fishing. One time, I was right at a point, and this guy trolled across the creek and right in front of me casting his CB right at me! Then proceeded to try and shoot the breeze with me as he cut me off....what in the world!!? This Saturday really made me appreciate working weekends and fishing during the week. Some real bozos out there on the weekends!

    I know the feeling. I do not want to start any more rants but what about the scenes you see at the boat ramp. LOL!!!! Sometimes you wander if you will ever get in or out. Let me block the ramp and load the boat and pack what we need for they day while everyone watches. LOL!!!! Totally amazing at times.

    Seriously! I watched a guy sit at the ramp at NRL for nearly 30 min piddling around while there was five boats waiting to launch! Finally, some guy came down from one of the waiting boats and had a few words with him. He then launched quickly, lol. Some people....

    Won't be able to blame that type of activity on the state of Ohio when in Utah. Correct?
