Members HeyYou Posted October 16, 2008 Members Posted October 16, 2008 Yesterday there were two guys in a blue john boat floating from Meramec Springs down. They were baiting. One angler told another angler that he was going to call in a violation. etc etc etc. Bottom line, out of 3 people that I know of that observed the violation, one getting pictures, only one called. I talked to this angler about 2 months ago and we discussed how to report a violation. I told him that the best thing to do is make sure someone calls OGT or the local agent. It is easy to do nothing which is what usually happens. That guy called this time and that call netted 2 bad guys with a load of bait and short fish. When you find something like this don't hesitate to call. Call OGT. 1-800-392-1111 PROGRAM IT INTO YOUR CELL PHONE NOW There are not enough of us to patrol everywhere. We need your eyes. I would have taken pictures to show my catch but it was raining buckets and I was soaked. Thanks to the guy that called. Your local Conservation Agent

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted October 17, 2008 Root Admin Posted October 17, 2008 Thank you sir for using our forum to get the word out. I wish more MDC officials would make their presence known more here to give us Joe-Public the assurance that they are listening... cause I know a lot of them read here. You do a great service to all of us who love to fish and love the resources God has blessed us with. Be safe!
