I know the ones I see in open water real spooky but those on cover not as bad . I was fishing with WSD yesterday . He stepped down to go weigh a Crappie . One on the screen left in a hurry. I know sometimes , even more in clear water boat slap will run them off . Thought about trying a strip of carpet to deaden wave slap on the bow of my boat . Be a lot cheaper than what your talking about .
