Daryk Campbell Sr Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 It's that time of year guys. Make sure you get it done before the OAF Tournament.

slothman Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 It is this time of year that I really enjoy having the lifetime permit. I only wish I had purchased it back when I was a teenager and it was really cheap.

Yeah, but here's the thing, and it's kinda funny if you have a sense of humor similar to mine.. During the Winter-Spring-Fall alot of "lake folk" drive around and fish off of each other's docks. If a MDC agent comes cruising up in a boat and asks for a fishing license, the fisherman says "ooops left my wallet on the table, I'll go get it". Guy walks up the hill, gets in his car and leaves. The agent sits and scratches his @ss until he eventually figures out he got punked. "Gee I wonder who that guy with no ID was?". Unless MDC agents are given retina scanners, handcuffs, tasers, and are quick enough to tie up their boat, hop out and still outrun the dude with 20 short crappie and no fishing license up the hill.......Yeah, not much sense in even trying to enforce that type of non-compliance, is there? An agent in a boat is not much of a threat to a guy on land. The only people that are gonna stick around when they see a game warden idling in are the ones that are 100% legal. I guess the MDC didn't consider that when they bought 3 brand new Regal boats to patrol dock fishermen on LO with. How many fishing violation fines does it take to pay for and maintain 3 new boats ? Yeah I dunno either. ? Maybe renting would have been a better option. slothman 1
slothman Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Good points. Some folks are certainly more clever than I. I never thought about it that way, Wrench, but it does make sense. Also, since when does the MDC do anything that makes sense? Especially financial sense?
