you may call it arrogance but i dont see why some skippers come so close to the pier especialy as its not the pier they tie up on.The vast majority of boats pass by without needing to reel in to avoid them, i didnt expect the boat to snag the line and so was not thinking about reeling in.I have the height of respecet for commercial fishermen who go to sea in all weathers and im not saying all boats engage in this practice, but some do and have lost gear here before in similar circumstances.
