Hunting And Fishing 6.4.2

Many anglers and hunters tend to focus exclusively on their fishing or hunting and neglect to keep a proper lookout for fellow boaters and other anglers.
Avoid quick movements. Use caution when retrieving a fish, collecting decoys or firing your gun: all these actions can result in falls-overboard emergencies.
Slow down around other boaters, and show respect by limiting noises, which travels clearly over water.
Give anglers and hunters a wide berth. Anglers are casting all around their vessel and hunters are firing guns - stay clear! A boat's wake could swamp an angler's boat. Additionally, anglers who are trolling may have their fishing line out a fair distance behind them - if you approach too closely, your boat could sever their fishing line.
