The wader should have the right of way since he/she is the one that is most likely at risk in the given situation. The drift boat should always steer clear of any waders in order to ensure the waders safety.
This topic was touched upon in the FFA forum when discussing jet boats coming close to waders. It is the same reasoning and from what I recall subject to a fine by law.
If you click on Sun's link and scroll to the top it does say "The best thing to happen to lighting since fire was invented".

Don, I wasn't comparing fly fisherman to bait chuckers. Didn't say that at all. What I said was I think the notion that fly fisherman are any more responsible than others is ridiculous. They may litter less when they are fly fishing and outdoors but I don't buy that they litter any less when outside of their FF environment than the average Joe because they are fly fisherman.
However in regards to the garbage left at lakes I agree that the spin casters and bait chuckers tend to leave more trash. I fish Muir a great deal and have cleaned up more bait containers than any FF related items. Sad fact considering it shouldn't be used in the first place. I also use my boat to clean the shoreline of pallets used for making docks the poachers use. I do my share, believe it. The sad fact is I see very few other fly fisherman ever cleaning up at Muir or any of the other lakes for that matter.
I see you have gone from plumbing to electrical work in a matter of days. Most plumbers take years before they really figure out what "HOT" means. Be careful.
Because our young people are coming out of schools more environmentally conscience today doesn't mean they aren't littering our streets and rivers.
When a person was educated has nothing to do with it.
I went to elementary school in the early 70's. We had the "Litterbug" program from grades 1 to 6 which educated us early about the problems associated with littering.
The environmental message is being pounded into our heads everywhere we go. There is no excuse for littering, period.
I have a 7-11 at the end of the street I live on. Believe me when I say it's not the old folk who are littering. I haven't had to threaten anyone over the age of 30, yet.
I think the notion that fly fisherman are anymore responsible than others is ridiculous.
I would be more inclined to believe age has more to do with who is more responsible than their chosen method of fishing.
Look at it this way, from 48 on almost everything in life is survival. You're just continuing on.
Oh the things we must torture ourselves with just for the kids. Isn't life wonderful? Sounds like you had fun.
If you would like to learn "fishing comedy" just search for anything posted by Tako on this board. Everything he has to say is a joke.
Welcome. enjoy your new addiction.
That's not Doc. He's another one of the guys that fishes Wabamun. His fish was bigger and much more impressive than Doc's, thus the link to his fish.
Doc only catches fish that need dentures.
This is an interesting bit.

see History: In 1922, the NHL introduced Rule 56..........
also:
"The NHL averaged twice as many fights during Gretzky's prime with the Edmonton Oilers than it did during the 1970s; some sources credit Gretzky with being a major cause in the statistical rise."
This was the Fort Frances Junior Sabres Fight. Take note of the song playing on the PA system.
