Default fishermen and others

Some of us have waited all winter to fish for salmon in the spring and then find out that joy riders are out in APRIL for heavens sake. Many fishing boats have very little freeboard. Many powerboats have a big wake even when they are going slowly. The water is high at this time of year so it is hard to see rocks. 150 feet is 2 ski tow ropes long (about). Ignore people yelling at you unless they are pointing out danger - pretend you didn't hear. This is no time of year to go joy riding - there's a lot of stuff in the lake, a lot of fishermen, even floating markers in the lake. You have all summer to joy ride, let the fishermen have April.
