If you are under way and approach a line of poles do you
a. go around the poles on either end of the line
b. run straight through the center of them
I was on Bulls Bay yesterday when someone run straight through the middle of my poles. I did indicate to the driver that I was not very happy with that, but he did not care at all. Was I wrong ?
Could have been me. I do not alter my course for poles. If i did running through cow pens,muddy bay, and bulls bag would be a nightmare. When poles are set running in all directions someone’s will get passed through.Do you think it scared your shrimp away?

The way everything was going yesterday NO I do not think it scared the shrimp away. I am just trying to understand what is proper.
Some people slow down when they get close to other boats,out of respect,but throwing a huge wake. Others stay on plane and fly by and the one sitting gets upset bc it was fast and close. Being every situation is unique I think all we can do is look out for each other as best we can. Sometimes we have to chalk it up no harm no foul. I guess unless it’s obvious some guy is a jerk, he may actually in his mind not hurting anything
I try to avoid at all cost and go around. If you are in the channel then that’s a different story I usually make the person aware “sorry but you’re in the channel and I cant go around.”
How was the shrimping in the Bay? If was slow for me opening day and I have been waiting for better reports.
