The boater is a moron. It's just not that hard to drive a boat without hitting another boat, an island, a dam etc.

I know some really stupid people that have managed to not hit stuff. I guess there could be people who are more stupid but it's hard to imagine it. I was sitting on some rock piles on granbury last summer. They are surrounded by hazard buoys and I had a morons in a ski boat do similar, I was waving and yelling. He damn near hit me, how he didn't knock his lower off on the Rock pile that was nearly out of the water is a miracle. As he passed withing about 10 feet of the front of my boat I was giving him as big a middle finger as I could. He comes back and I show the old man and his son what they just ran over and they couldn't believe it. Then I mention that it's probably not the best plan to run on pad right off another boat withing arms distance..... I also threw in a couple mfrs etc.... he thought the hazard buoys were channel markers..... he had just bought the boat the day before. He said he was gonna pray for me lol. I told him to return the boat before he killed someone or himself. So yes there are a few real dummys out there.

Oh there was more, I covered the whole alphabet and if the guy wasn't 75 I would have suggested heading to the ramp. And there was no fog and middle of day. He thought I was waving at him and waved back till he only saw one finger .....

I use 60 lb braid, 1/4 oz jig heads with 3" walleye grubs.

When I get snagged I just rip my jig out of the tree and bend the hook back.


I used to think the same as you until I was invited on a trip several years ago. My buddy told me to leave my spinning rods at home and bring a bass rod with braid. Up until that day that was the most crappie I've ever seen caught in a single trip.

The guy operating the vessel that collided with the other vessel appears to be a mature gentleman with a lot of years of wisdom and knowledge.

Wonder how he ran into a random boat in the middle of the lake?

So you are saying his age and reduced ability to operate a vessel could have contributed? very interesting

I think the guy that ran over over the other boat and ended up on top of it in Florida, was also an experienced gentleman with years of skill and knowledge.
