Saw that link a while ago

The one that pisses me off the most is this one

Personalized Watercraft Fishing boats are unjustly included with these noisy irritants by groups that want to establish quiet zones or primitive areas on public waters. Anglers must distance themselves from personalized watercraft, and they must lobby to keep waters open for fishing

Bass is just asking for problems with that remark..

Reason is bass boats are just as loud (espeacially the olderones) and the are worse producers of the emmisions..

Del, Consider the difference between how Bass Boats/PWCs are used. They are both noisy, but in an 8 hour day the bass boat engine runs very little. Its hard to fish at 60mph! The PWC is no fun unless its screaming. That engine runs most of the day.
