How close is too close

[Lazinator]

If you can toss a lit stick of dynamite under their chair, they might be too close.

This summer while I was perch fishing, some bozo kept trolling beside me, and I do mean beside me. I literally could've stepped into his boat without jumping.

I would say that sling shot range would be as close as you should get.

i agree with the 50 yard length but even if you have hut it doesnt keep them from cutting in last year we had a guy cut holes next to my hut to use as a win break and sat on his sled thinking everything was ok ###### me off wanted to ask if he wanted me to leave the door open so he could use my holes

For me........I think a minimum of 50ft for Perch is acceptable. Everyone would like as much separation as possible, but sometimes conditions don't permit 150ft distances........such as this weekend.

Going to be like a bee's nest out there tomorrow.......pushing, shoving, and buzzing with frustration.

Love the shirt. . Thanks as well thorahguy i had not really considered the lake depth line tangle scenario. Funny because it has happened before a few times.

Try throwing a jigging rappala down your hole on an extra rod with some old line on it, give it a couple of good tugs and you should pretty well have everyones lines tangled together. Cut yours free and the rest of the mess should keep those that decided to fish right next to you busy for awhile.

You can get a williams wobbler to go out on a pretty drastic angle. If I can hook your line or mark your spoon on my fish finder then your too close.

I take a big mouthful of coffee, walk over to the guy and start fake barffing all over the ice. Then I say that I have a bad case of the flu and ask him if he has anything to settle my stomach. He can't move fast enough. Works every time.
