If everybody know what they are doing you can fish fairly successfully with guys near you. Its the one guy , he casts over the 6 guys to his uptide side but he's only out 50 feet. Then , he retrieves it in in two seconds and doesn't wait for ewveryone else to complete their drift. next thing you know he's over you while you have 200 yards out and a fish on.
I'll say it again , there is no way around it anymore except to go at off times and off places. Things will never go back to "The way they used to be".
