Thanks. I thought I was probably right but then started to second guess myself. I think the officer on the Stilly was really lookin hard to give a ticket. He wanted to to know where I had parked, why I was "fishing from a floating craft..." After a significant amount of discussion he finally said "well, I guess I'll give you the benefit of the doubt this time" and that really steamed me since I hadn't been doing anything wrong and he implied that he would ticket me in the future if I did the same thing again. Anyway. -Old Chum
