[QUOTE="Headhunter, post: 5379492, member: 652"] Wake boats are a problem. Bad part is they don't even have to be close to you. I know many in bass boats run wide open, and yes the large wakes can be a major issue for them but the worst part about the wakes from wake boats is they are an issue for EVERYONE. And they can be a danger even to someone a half a mile away. I saw wake boats on Priest yesterday (never even got close to me, not remotely close) but you had to be ready when the waves from the wake boats showed up. Those "rollers" can easily throw someone overboard and even at 25 or 30 mph can cause an accident or even worse a death. Ski boats, jet skis, etc. can run all around me (stay outside of casting distance) and they don't bother my fishing at all this time of year, actually they help it most of the time. The wake boats are just a bad thing IMO and beyond dangerous. As far as I know, ALL boat owners are responsible for the wakes created by their boats and any damage they cause. Just wish that was enforced. [/QUOTE]
