When i see something wrong, and this something could be hazardous or even fatal, yes i would say something!

I usually do say something and I should have! My point is have you ever offered someone some friendly advice only to have them start pissing in your ear like a friggin' know it all?? It happens alot to me! But I had a bad feeling on this one and should have gone with my gut!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

You'll get over some a-hole snubbing his nose at you pretty quickly. Maybe not so much if the worst happened. Especially a dumbass unknowingly leading his son into lethal conditions. Picture the news interview, " I had no idea it was like that out there".
Maybe the son though the same thing you did but didn't want to sound like a wimp to dad.
It's really no different than offering to help some id10t who's not catching when its on fire and every one else is slaying. All you can do is offer your experience. If it falls on deaf ears, at least you tried.

I was out there about 8-10 years ago and saw a guy in trouble flipped over in a sit in. The thing was so water logged he couldn't get it up right. He had a vest on, and this was before the sharks. (luckily) I pulled him in with him holding on to my yak with one hand and his water logged one in the other. I felt like I was in a strong man competition. I didn't even get a plug out of the deal. So Larry, did you get any fish??

I find it so stupid that people think they know everything they don't even consider looking into or leaning about the new sport they're going to start, take a lesson for heavens sake
