Wow, that sucks.  Sorry to hear that, noff, sounds like a massive bummer.

I'll be bitter about it for many fishing trips to come, but I appreciate the condolences. :)

I could understand a fine for violating the rules but the confiscation of the rods and beer (as opposed to just saying you can't use them and must put them away) is just baffling to me. Is that really what the rules provide or did the ranger just want beer and rods for himself? I hear the border police can just steal your laptop for the hell of it.

He poured all the beer out in front of us (to put that idea to rest I guess). He also included a very detailed description of the rods, reels and lures so if we decided to fight the ticket's in court we might have a chance of getting the equipment back.

:o I'm so confused. Are you not allowed to drink in public? On a dock? While driving a fishing pole? And I thought Utah drinking laws were strict.

May I suggest batting cages? They're highly therapeutic.

I'm really sorry smirnoff.

Thanks Sandy, that's a really good suggestion. And now I know where to go when I want to hang loose (Utah). ;)

I agree Clovis. One step above getting cats out of trees.

I had an absolutely amazing weekend, tarnished only by the guilt if not finding time to post the Retro Filmspot nominations. I'll post them tonight, I swear, once I sober up from being so high on life.
