Fishing from docks

[nightrider]

I once had the occasion to discover my boats mooring cover with a large rip/hole in it. I can only surmise that a fisherwoman landed her cast on the cover then set the hook whilst trying to retreive the lure. Rather than leave it to me to remove with minimal damage, she ripped and cut it out resulting in an expensive repair. I see people casting within inches of my boat all the time. An errant cast was bound to happen. I guess my point is, don't make a situation worse by causing more damage than you already have. Cut your losses (and the line) and leave!
