Opp on fish patrol LOL the big sting

[bardern]

Joe when the anti Trumps move up here I might take their spot in Texas lol.

This has been a great discussion in all seriousness guys. I just know if everyone agreed with me the world would be a better place ;-)

Don't mean to derail the thread but just curios what are the usual things OPP looks for and asks for when they stop you in boat?

[bardern]

depends on the size of craft. but boating license, bailing bucket, noise maker, life jackets, anchor, buoyant throwing line, paddle, flashlight and fire extinguisher come to mind. I am sure I am forgetting something other than fish slightly over the slot limit of course.

Safety gear.
Boating licence.
Booze on board.

If you have fishing gear:
- Fishing licence.
- Fish caught?

Gee - no toilet paper - with all that stuff is there any room in the boat for my tackle box?

At many retailers magazine counters and check outs,Transport Canada has Boaters Handbooks readily available free of charge that list everything required according to the size of the boat you're using. Pick one up and keep it with your tackle. It could save you some money and aggravation.

They serve the Liberal Wynne agenda.

I thought their was 2 world wars that Canadians gave their lives for to stop tyranny so we could live free in a free country speak freely and enjoy our natural resources freely and not be asked " for our papers " while out fishing.

What did our veterans fight for if our law enforcement officers have become the modern version of the SS while making over 100k a year looking for chicken charges..

Are they here to serve the taxpayer or are we here to serve them.

[jimmer]

Agreed

Here's what I think is funny about this. How many posts on here do we have about not enough enforcement and CO's and poaching ? And yet we are arguing that the fish and game act was enforced and someone who by law was poaching ( in possession of illegal fish ) was busted. Hope no one comes to fish the ganny for the salmon run when the port hope police will be doing patrols under the fish and game act lol

You'd change you tune if your family suffered a loss on the lake due to a Drunk boater...so NO it's not an either or issue...

Come on !! They are going after the low hanging fruit for a tax grab. It's obvious because boating fatalities are going up proving that what they are doing isn't working.
To bring up families that have lost members to alcohol and boating is disingenuous to the families.
