I am usually just a phone call away. we know there are problems but we can't be everywhere at once. I took our 25 foot whaler out last night about 6:30 and for the most part what I saw did not look to bad. I did seee one wakeboarder right along the south dike but no fishermen were around. There was one guy fishing from shore but I think when the wakeboard boat saw him or me he made an abrupt turn north and went around him well outside of 150 feet.
I did have one guy complain about a wakeboard boat on Monday. He was going to sign a complaint, but he docked at the north and I believe the other boat went to the south. I will give you a hint, This wakeboard boat would not of liked me if I had located them. They passed within a 150 feet 5 times and after the fishermen said something to them they decided on there next pass to show the guy 5 moons. If they had been located not only would there have been a speed and proximity citation but also a lewdness. I still have there bow numbers written down so hopefully they will show up again. This guy called me on marine band 16, so if you have a radio try it next time or call on a cell phone.
