Got a warning for sitting on my buddy's flatbottom's front seat when I was 10.. My buddy was 13. They just was harassing. Think we got told warnings on like 8 different things that day..
Crab trap, life jacket had a tear, Whistle wasn't loud enough, measured all of our fish (all 25 trout and 10 reds), and told me I can't sit on deck seat, but I could sit on the deck with feet in bottom boat
The real problem was that you were catching to much fish for your age. You were making the older guys look bad.
