Yall can say,"if your good to them they are good to you." Yea thats b.s.
Started when I was 8. Buddy and I were fishing and got stopped. Warned for the following; Wired crab pot above ICW, Sitting on front deck (needed to be on the floor since under 13), he needed a sound device. No biggie.
Once I turned 10 and could run a boat, it was all down hill. For the most part they were fine, just the usual boaters card, registration, kill switch, life jacket check every week.
If I had a buddy and we were fishing it was bad. One that sticks out the best, 2 15 man limits of trout, 2 man limit of reds. Came through the barrier, seen the gamewarden, so I slowed down since he was writing someone a ticket, didn't want to throw a wake.
Once finished with them he chased me down and stopped me, measured all my reds (all were 18-20 inches by the way) and measured all the trout that looked 12 (all of our specks were 14 inches or greater. Best fishing trip I've had north of I10) after he played capt. ****, he asked us what we caught on and where. pffft
Other day, was on the river on my buds deckboat, ran it all day, cranked it and it wouldn't turn over, about the time we tried GW's rolled up and check us. My bud asks them to tow us to my house and they act like we are troubling them from there lovely stroll on the river. I told my buddy, see that bar on the back, its called a tow bar, they have it for a reason.
