    please remember to park your rig (not on the ramp) in a designated parking spot, close your two drivers side doors AND turn off your engine before leaving. I know it’s easy to just jump ahead and leave the ramps to get started fishing.

    But it’s not a good idea to leave your rig on the ramp with the motor running.

    The walleyes will wait.

    Once done fishing the story goes, he was thinking to himself that all he has to do now is to back the trailer down the ram…(long pause) Good thing one of the local guides figured it out and parked it for him. As long as he was gone, he may have run out of fuel by the time he returned. )

    Was an envelope left for a $50 gratuity exchangable for a map to the keys?

    And I thought the forgotten drain plug trick was bad.

    Dupe…Saw this on Hanska about 8 years ago also. Luckily there was only 1 other boat on the lake when I launched, so it wasn’t hard to find the owner…

    At least he remembered to unhook his transom straps… devil chased

    Ahhh launching a boat. The process is quite confusing for many.

    Had a boat sit at the dock in Prescott for 1.25 hrs yesterday afternoon. Assuming they were
    Broke down and someone had to go get the trailer, of course there’s better places to sit and wait and not impede others.

    On the plus side, doing something like that once usually leads to ADD and they’ll probably never do it again.

    Had to park someone’s truck like this in Wabasha several. Wondered how exited to fish the person was or hung over. I assume he never even knew that he even had left it.
    Also truck door open and running. Rowing team member told me that the truck had been there for over a 1.5 before I moved it. Looked for pen and paper to leave note but none found.

    Guys this unreal, and I’m sure we’re just barely scratching the surface! Kind of confirms the gut feeling that you should be scared to share the roads with these idiots. Stupidity is rampant.

    Well every year we hear of kids being left in car seats in hot weather. It’s hard to figure out how that happens too. (
