Linesider:
It's impossible to "drive" a boat. You can drive a car, you can drive a truck, you can drive a tractor, and I suppose you can drive someone crazy, but you cannot "drive" a boat, or an airplane (an airship), for that matter.
Does a hooked fish spooking neighboring fish? I think they do. I've seen it not only with striped bass and bluefish but also with pigs. Just go to a pork (pig) processing plant and listen. Pigs (hogs) waiting to be slaughtered are crying. The sound will stop you in your tracks. In fact, you'll need to wear earplugs to work there. Pigs are very intelligent (and clean) creatures, and so are striped bass. Believe me, they communicate among their species. If you catch a bass in a particular spot, move away for awhile and then come back.
