ppl?

I would think the usual navigation rules apply. Yes, there are rules about fishing vessels and under tow and restricted in ability to maneuver, etc. But I would think boats fishing trolling are equals and the usual rules of the road would apply. But we all know most Lake Erie boaters don't know the rules.

You may be right. If trolling keeps trending more popular there are bound to be some mishaps when the "fleet" is large.
