Buddy system

Post by NavionicsSpecJason »

First tournament of the year and an hour in and one of the guys in my group gets swamped by a bass boat tournament launching from the same ramp. Fortunately the only thing lost was some equipment and a little time. Image

Narrow creek arm, about 10-12 feet of water, just outside the no wake zone. Angler was fishing a lay down on the bluff wall, had the bow of the kayak facing the bluff wall. Swamped from the stern by wake.

They seem to have left their brains at the shore.
Can't convince me they didn't know it happened.
