I did not have the displeasure of seeing them this year however last year I had four kids under the age of 10 on board. I was hoping to introduce them to fishing. I anchored just west of the MH lighthouse in very tight to the shore in not more than 24 feet of water feeling safe from the normal weekend traffic. Then we saw the rooster tails coming at us from PIB. Cool at first but not for long. They came dangerously close to many anchored boats. Two of them actually passed between my boat and the shore at full speed. I could have hit them with a rock and would have if I had one handy. It seems that the coasties are more concerned about out dated flares than what is a Truely a dangerous situation and just look the other way. I have wanted to get this off my chest for a long time now. Thanks for listening.
