The EPO was sitting just inside the hurricane barrier today, pulling over almost every boat that looked fishy. We got stopped around 2PM and they said they hadn't seen anyone with bass. I guess looking for comm bass boats on the way in. When we left the fishing grounds it looked like all/most of the striper boats were still out there fishing.
My boat passed with flying colors the license inspection, safety inspection and fish inspection (scup/BSB/fluke). The officer was a little perplexed that Chuck had an eLicence but let him go.
Funniest part was when the officer went to reboard his boat, moved to the front of mine, straddled the bow rail, and promptly slipped nailing his jewels on the bar. My almost first MOB situation.
I told him I caught the whole incident on my GoPro (not really but wish I had
).
