I've had em come over the bow a half dozen times but it was usually when on a slow troll and when the driver is not paying attention in somewhat rough seas. I wouldn't necessarily call it stuffing the bow but just thinking about the bite and allowing the nose to get pointed right into one coming out of the trough.

I find that if you keep the bow high by trimming up a bit and run a slow and steady speed (10-12 mph) it would take a really large pair of waves w/ a short period in order to stuff it. Slow trolling or planed off is a different story but I'm talking about when it gets rough and you can't plane off without throwing someone overboard. The boat can take a beating!
