Hey all,
Was up on Rainy and had my license checked. No big deal, and nice guy with fishing advice, too.
HOWEVER — four years ago me and the family headed to a fast food place to eat on the way to launching down by Red Wing. Right after leaving the launch, my stomach started a-rumbling… know where this is going?
We made the turn out into the river and here come the flashing lights, and by then I’m about to… lose it.
The two guy and one woman patrol dutifully asked friggin’ ALL of the safety questions: fire extinguisher, throwable, etc., and by now I’m hopping around. We FINALLY got away and I had to use the bucket loo that I’d brought for my kids. Picture this — kids in front, wife driving, me in back, ahem, sitting on the bucket. When the three-story tour barge goes by, I just smile and wave…
No fish story.
