First CO Licence Check - MichaelAngelo - 03-16-2012 01:07 AM

This is my first time in a lifetime of being out fishing that I've seen a CO in action. And it was the day I forgot my wallet (with my licence) at home on the counter! LOL

I told him all my info and he was able to call in to verify everything.

The dude fishing beside be got a ticket for an expired license.

All these years, finally run into some CO action! =D

Good to see there out and about!!!

I haven't seen any on the softwater yet, but any day now.

Our local MNR are awesome, I look forward to them coming through.

Its always nice to see that there on top of there job... I was also been check last month and was glad to see them waiting in the parking lot... I showed mine but the guys behind us got in sorta trouble for not having a license, plus they have fish with them... I dont know how much they had to pay but Im sure they where not happy.. Smile they drop the stuff in there car and left rightaway.. I think the CO still nice to them not confiscating there fishing equipment Sad

I have had several license checks, mostly over on the islands.

The CO's we have today in this province currently , are for the most part in my experience, both reasonable and dedicated. Most are more than happy to share info on local fishing.

I would imagine its a "tough" job some days. Especially during hunting seasons with a few cletus's running around with loaded weapons.

I tip my hat to them.

Cheers,

That definitely got me laughing =D

But it's true, not an easy job. Not an easy job.
