Tournament or not....
This time of year lots of freswater lakes are blanketed with fog in the mornings...sometimes it does not burn off till 10.00 AM.....

I have been hearing about some real close calls here in Ga and elesewhere..
Fisherman are running at high speeds blind (cant see your hand in front of your face) trusting GPS....It wont show another boat....just the way to go...
Last weekend a boater complained to another boater at weigh in that he passed him with 5 ft. clearence at WOT...barley reconized their brand and color..
I don't know the answer.....this could get bad
