Plain and simple....if you're trolling, you are under power and therefore must yield and avoid any anchored craft regardless if they just anchored up in your trolling path. The only exceptions I have ever witnessed would be out on the salt when those googan commercial fishing boats who really don't give a rip for anyone's safety and would rather sink you in a small vessel just lay on their horns rather than alter their course. Those guys are too much, very dangerous
