there are no clear answers it a big lake and boaters can do better when under power.but im not driving5 miles out of my way to make sure someone doesnt get any wake from my boat,and jiggers and casters can be better about not setting up in the middle of trollers when they are working a active school of fish.i do see that alot. i have alot of charter boats come within 75 yards of me wide open and not a boat around for at least a mile away.i hate fishing packs.rather spend all day fishing than fighting other boats.
