Well help me out on this one. I fish from a drift boat most of the time. When I am comming down the river and see a guy fishing in knee deep water ( say he is on the right side of the river casting out to the left as I come down) I will try to drift down on the right side and pass between him and the shore. This way I stay out of his water. I feel that most of the rivers are not wide enough to pass on the left with out getting in to his water. If I can not pass behind him I like to pass right in front of him close enough to shake his hand. Have I been doing this wrong ????
