If another club is coming off the water the same time yours is, they probably are not permitted to do so. But I.F. do not know about any problems until it is brought to their attention. If someone were to call saying that another tournament came off the lake at the wrong time coinciding with their tourney which caused all kinds of problems, the tourney director would get a call asking never to do that again. For non-tourney boaters, that's a different situation. I will pass the suggestion up the line, I don't think it's a bad idea. Especially if it would make it easier for the tourney participants. For the tourney at Lattins last year, Bill Foreman specifically schedules tourneys to have differing weigh in times to prevent those exact problems. If there were three tourneys weighing in at the same time, then two of them were not supposed to be. In that case, if it was brought to the attention of Inland Fisheries, whoever was in the wrong would have been confronted. As far as I know, there were no tourneys going on at Lake Housatonic on the Forth of July. In my opinion, it violated the rights of anglers. From what you describe, they should have been given tickets and their cars towed. Why they were not, I have no idea. I would say that formal complaints should be filed with Boating. I don't think it's ok to violate that rights of anybody, even if it would cause havoc. I think morons that park like that should be ticketed and towed. There's really nothing that Inland Fisheries can do about that. Unless any problems are brought to the attention of Inland Fisheries, they don't know that they are happening. You say the squeaky wheel gets the grease, well if there are legitimate problems, call and report them. If nothing was done about the idiot-parking on the forth, I would report it to Boating. I have never seen anyone at Inland Fisheries take the past of least resistance. Myself and the people around me absolutely do not. If everyone could see the time and effort that is put into trying to solve every problem, you'd think differently, at least about Inland Fisheries.
