sorry mate, i think the world has gone stupid.
change some place names and these threads sound just like life here in N.Y., USA.
the fish and boat cops must all go to the same acadamy somewhere in outer space.

hey guys,
we where pulled over by the water police, at mud island about 4 months ago. We are keen fisho's and we would fish as much as possible. we also make sure all our safety gear is up to date, from jackets, buckets etc. When the water police came over he gave us the normal speal. Before giving us a ticket for our life jackets that had 5% derogation(his words) , which meant that the writing was hard to read. The jackets where only 2 years old and never stored in the sun light.$150 dollar fine and get off the water. On returning home we then checked the life jackets in my mates boat, which where brand new. we could read my older ones better. When the copper came over to us we asked him how he was going and the first comment back from him was" how do u think im going, working on a long weekend" At that stage we new he would do us for something. He also gave us a warning about our capacity label which also turned out to be the same as a brand new one. I guess we are in for more fun when the green zones come in and everybody has to have a gps.

tight lines shaneoo
