Idiot Boaters Endangering Their Kids

[Pepe]

We got the lake today and decided to check out Big Creek this afternoon. A lot of boats on the water and I gues I just didn't expect that on a Thursday. My mistake. There were a couple spots we wanted to fish but the boat and jet ski traffic was too heavy. Even deep into the creek the JS's were racing around.

We were leaving the creek and see this green boat coming the other way,pulling a kid on a tube. The boat turns a couple times and is then on a collision course - head on. The driver was a 65-70 year old man who was looking back over his shoulder at the kid on the tube.

The only thing I could do was stop and holler. The driver looked up in surprise and swerved at the last minute. I thought that kid was coming into our boat. Scared the crap out of me.

I am thinking hard about relocating to Bull Shoals. I hear it is not as crazy

Or maybe someone could ask "what's a Ned rig"? That hasn't been beaten totally to death just yet!

The problem with the Ned rig is that it's too easy to catch fish with and the meat hogs are eating the fish they catch on it.

And there you have it. No matter what the problem is, it's always the fault of those guys that like to keep fish. They are ruining it for everyone.

Anytime I see kids being towed around on water toys and their head and bodies are being jerked. every with way. I wonder what kind of problems those kids are going to have in the future. with all the wakes it is very rough.
