There's unfortunately a lot of boaters who don't watch, don't care, or can't comprehend that marker lines don't hang straight down, and they need to pass pots on the downwind or down-tide side.....especially blow-boaters with deep keels.
Bright color requirements would help some but the crabbers also need some way to differentiate their pots from someone else's pots.
This will continue to be a problem.....just goes with the territory of multiple usage of the resources of the Bay.
The pot recovery program is a good program with benefits to all users.
