We got checked by the DNR
Father's Day and my two sons are on the boat with me on the Ohio river. We see Indiana DNR checking some bank fishermen (younger men and boys) on the Kentucky bank. I knew they'd be over to check us out so I got my boat registration and all our fishing licenses out of the glove box.
They were professional and polite and the entire check process took less than 5 minutes as we were prepared. I had all the PFD's in plain sight and displayed my throw cushion. They never asked to see if my fire extinguisher was in the green but since everything else was in order I guess they figured I was good to go, and I was.
