That's the way Narrow River looked the week after Mr. Mckennas article came out last year. Thank God they got skunked a couple of times and never came back

No boat, back in the suds.

I have never fished with anymore than 3 or 4 people at one spot and would never. Fish at times others are sleeping and spots that people don't write articles about and you are all set.

Cool

if a boater is drifting close to shore anglers, that's one thing.

a boat that anchors up where shore anglers have already set up ... well, let's just say I've seen a lot of dings in the gelcoat happen from flying 8 oz pyramid sinkers.

Look at the knuckleheads out on the rocks with all those casters behind them . If Big Dave was casting off that beach and had a breakoff it might be terminal for one of them .

I typically fish at night, where there are generally fewer fellow anglers to crowd in upon. If you fish with friends, you can usually set up a casting rhythm, so that each person can cast in succession.
If you're a new arrival, unless you know the people that are already there, you will probably have to give them a fair berth. 15-30 ft. would be a start, depending on any current you encounter.
I like my solitude, but I'm willing to share, as long as you aren't a scout for a small army of claim-jumpers.
