The Inspector

When I got to the boat ramp, a guy was sitting there in a lawn chair...with a clip board, and a big ole drink.

After some weather and bird talk, I found out he worked for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission. He was waiting for all the fishing boats to return to the dock, and checking the type, size, and weight of the fish. I couldn't tell whether the boat captains liked the guy, or just tolerated him.

It wasn't a good shooting day. Very overcast, and then some rain sent me scurrying back to my van.

If you want to keep fishing...
you have to be wise.
You just keep the ones...
of the correct size.

I should have posted a bird,
instead of this fish with a fin.
But I found it hard to resist...
the inspectors evil (?) grin. ;0)
