As for the person who would like to cast and tangle lines well when I troll many times I have 50-80 pound braid and 85 pound leaders on so probably won't be me loosing that battle.
Actually the post I was replying to was talking about how long someone can put up shop in his "spot".

And in my opinion there is no such thing is "my spot" on a lake, it's first come first served, early bird gets the worm and countless other cliches.

As for the how close is too close ... no tangle no foul, but common courtesy would dictate a wider birth. The problem there is courtesy is not as common as it used to be.
