Gardner Ramp in Burlington, Enforcement Activity

Post by rseas » Mon Sep 07, 2015 8:39 am

What happened Sunday evening? As I often do, I was down at the ramp checking things out and talking to the people fishing. I asked why the WDFW truck was sitting in the middle of the ramp apron running with the door open. I was told the warden pulled in and went down the dirt road after some guys that had pulled a boat up on the beach upstream from the ramp and offloaded a bunch of sturgoen.

While we were talking there were gunshots back in the woods and I decided it was time to get out of Dodge and head home to get dinner in the oven. On the way home 3 State Patrol cars and I think a Sheriff car went blasting past me on Gardener continuing on down to the ramp.

I hope that all is well for everybody involved.

Holy crap. Somebody is about to lose their boat, truck, and do some nice prison time.

Hopefully they nailed that SOB!!! Tired of seeing people not give a damn about our resources.
Whats the difference between Davy Crockett and Jack Daniels? Jack Daniels is still killing indians.
