So yesterday evening my uncle and myself were fishing a few miles out from 12 mile, when out of nowhere this boat is barreling down on us. I figure about a 28 footer, maybe more. I figure he was doing about 30 mph. He's aiming right for us. I figure at some point this idiot will see us and turn. Well he didnt. if anything he turned more towards us. We were in a 16 ft boat. wasnt dark at all. at the last second my uncle happened to have an air horn next him, and blew it towards the idiot. He obviously heard it, and made a hard left missing the front of our boat by maybe 15-20 ft. This is way to close!!! He actually stopped about 300 yds away, but never came back to apologize, and eventually kept going....Be careful people, thats all I ask...Pay some damn attention!!! look in front of you at some point. you never know whos there. I'm not much of a fisher, and have a 25 ft cruiser myself. So i'm not bagging on non fisherman. Just certain idiots! However I look where I'm going usually!
