South 371 5-14
Fished a paddie about 5 miles SW of the 371 for 12 Yellowtail on 1 drift. There were 4 or 5 other boats on the paddie and at 1 time everyone I could see was bent.
When we pulled up there were 2 boats approx 25 and 35 yards downwind of the paddie. We went up wind/swell about 150 yards and shut the motor down. I threw a blue & white iron towards the paddie and hooked up a YT. By the time I got it to the boat, YT were crashin all over around me. We had thrown a bunch of bait. I got 2 more on iron and then switched to bait cause I got cut off by my son's bait line.
My drift took us kinda close to the paddie and I may have pissed someone off. Hope not, but if I did, sorry. We drifted right past the paddie another 100 yards and ended up with 12 YT on that 1 drift. I just pulled off after the 1 drift just about the time WhippetGood was pulling up to it. We left them biting.
Trolled a bunch for only 1 YT. What a beautiful day on the pond. Sure beat working all to hell

Great job Harry! I don't think drifting tooooo close to thre paddy hurt tooo much from what I've witnessed the past 2 trips. They are not too picky and it seems like they aren't to close anyway. I'm sure if you shut the bite down you'd have heard about it.

Different Paddie
I tried calling all you guys in on the paddie I was on before "the big one". There were a couple boats near me and I saw them haul ass. Normally I wouldn't have followed but they only hauled ass about 1/4 mile from where we were and stopped. I went over and made my drift and left
No one came when I called them in on the first paddie, and I didn't find the big boy, so I didn't call again, I figured you were all hooked up on your own paddie.
Anyhow, great day on the pond

From what I've seen out there, it doesn't seem to bother them too much when you drift up to the paddy.... It's the guys that motor right up to the paddy that spook'um......
Sounds like a great day Harry!!!!!!!

Blood Everywhere
Yeah Glen, it was a firedrill, blood everywhere and we were kicking fish out of the way to get to the corners
I agree with all of you that said the drift was ok. Sure didn't shut down the bite at all. We were still catching them after we had gone 100 yards past the paddie. I figured I was ok, I was 3 times as far as the closest boat when I pulled up, only difference was I approached from upwind. I really think those guys did pull right up on it and drifted down and away before I got there. Anyhow, 1 guy blasted me as he sped off. Least I think he was blasting me He was the only boat that was not bent, and I really don't think I was the reason By the time I got "too close" to the paddie there were an additional 3 boats on it and everyone (cept that 1 boat) was bent. Pretty wild for awhile there. Anyhow, I got the jones off me for a week or so anyway
