Familyfisherman Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Give it up already...it's been a horrible year, why end it with something much worse? Season's over...go get your boats ready for after the ice is gone...which won't be long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiskywizard Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 In the various rescue reports, there's often a line talking about possible charges and fines. Does anybody know what violation(s) they could be charged with? I'm not aware of any that apply. Or is it some goofy municipal bylaw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan668 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 They were just trolling. Gotta try this technique out, no motor. Silent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishingwithbob Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) They should know better and just bring an electric trolling motor with them, they could rescue themselves. Edited March 13, 2012 by fishingwithbob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip-ripper Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Floating on a 1 inch thick sheet of ice!?!? Crazy! I would want at least 3 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickOnt Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 The Adams St and the 25th SdRd is just south of IBP and yesterday this was ALL Wide open. I guess that could be where the Fire Dept caught up to them and they actually started their drift off the Sixth. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headhunter Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I noticed on CP24 this morning that they are talking about fining the folks from last week's rescue $100.00 each. I know that that amount doesn't come close to the actually cost of the rescues... but I'd like to know what the charge would be... ? HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey buoy Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I'm not judging ,but comon,REALLY? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I'd make up a charge. But I'd start with negligence then go to criminal negligence if a rescuer was killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimaster Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Would be interesting if one of these two was one of the previous 26. I guess if the had a power auger they could hang it off the back of the floe and giver to shore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigugli Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 There are numerous charges that could be laid. Mischief, endangerment, or negligence clauses that cover any act, or failure to act, which causes damage, harm, or public risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
