jenk98 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hey raiders, Just wondering what people's thoughts are on boat noise when fishing around the washes. When fishing in tight to the white water do yous leave the boat running or cut it. I personally cut it and drift in but it does occasionally make me a little nervous for the day when for some unknown reason the boat doesn't start.

noelm Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I have fished for Bream casting from a boat into washes, and have never noticed a difference between motor on or off, on short drift structure, leave the motor on, on longer drifts, I turn it off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey05 Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 personally if fishing the wash id keep it running, like you said you want to be able to get out of trouble fast if you need to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maccam Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 I pretty much only fish washes. My take is that yes, an outboard does spook snapper if its not a really washy day, so I use an electric. But, you really need to make sure you can rely on your outboard to start first go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
