I have a quick success story,,,
Was anchored about 50 yards off a dock with my son quite a few years back, We had a ski boat and skiier (sp) that kept coming between us and the dock, I couldn't get the TX number and called the warden, he said he was on his way to our location but wanted the TX numbers. I told him I couldn't read them as they went by turns out they were to small and very close together. I knew they would disappear and leave me waiting for the GW by myself so I tied on a rattle trap and as the boat went by I casted the trap, when my line was rubbin on the ski rope the skiier saw this and very wisely let go.. LOL when the boat came back and stopped, waking me even worse I wouldn't let them pick up the kid and luckily we all only had to stay there for less then 2 minutes and the GW arrived. They got ticketed for running to close and reckless endangerment or something, not enough life jackets, TX numbers incorrect, and no mirror on the ski boat. It was very entertaining....
