On the lake by 11:30,boat shows everywhere.went north up the lake and found the fish,5 minutes later troller arrives and goes around us a few times.we moved off and went to another spot,found the fish again , and yes the trollers turned up again,they only passed by us about 20feet and then the jet skiers turned up. We tried to catch one of them with our 2 oz slab but they were just not biting,apart from that we had a good day!!

I went out on benbrook this evening just for a cruise with the girlfriend and almost hit.. Well thought i was going to hit s jet ski 3 times! Im just going along and from a easy 300 yards away here come a pair of them... They were clearly in path to hit me and when it got within 100 yards and they didnt turn i killed throttle... They KEEP coning and right when we wouldve hit they 180 turn back... This happend 3 times... Some people just have should not be allowed on water...
Then to top it off... I get stopped in middle of lake by game warden for a routine check.. No problem with wardens or check... But as they pulled away.. I just had this feeling/thought... Your going around checking all the "fisherman" ( saw them literally check every fishing boat in sight) yet the people out here causing potential danger.. They payed bo attention... The jet skiers didnt do anything "wrong" but it was pretty bad... Saw one guy catching some white bass with marker out and jet skiers started going in circles within 30-50 ft... I just have to sit back sometimes... Makes you wonder..
Ok ranting done...

I had a sailboat get 2 feet.....yes....2 feet from me on Saturday morning at Eagle Mountain......not even an "excuse me" or "sorry"
If the couple wasnt about 65+ years old.....I would have been on their boat!!

I am considering paint ball gun to "get their attention". Of course a bag full of wet stink bait makes a nice thud on their hull!

Every since one of those jet fleas almost hit my wife while I was towing her skiing, I have had it out for them! They're like school in July, No Class!
