TH... you know what the weirdest part was...
It was a friggin mistake on my part...
I ASSUMED it was PART of a State park nearby that I DO have permits to hunt in.
As soon as I stepped off the boat ( I was last one off) ... from above old fort I see a 4 wheeler screaming down the side dunes...
Flying at us full frigging speed he slammed on brakes and came skidding sideways at us... ARMED...
He has this SEERIOOUUUSS pissed look on his face ... And says "what in the F=== do you think you are doing" ?
He is yelling " I WILL ARREST YOUR A-SSSES IF YOU EVEN BLINK BACK AT ME WRONG" !!
He then says GET BACK ON YOUR BOAT... LEAVE THIS BEACH WITH THOSE NOW"! ... "you can do that in the water"... "but not on the sand".
I was like "o.k" np... in child like voice heh

But was thinking yeah yeah... you must metal detect in your spare time... lol
Well there we sat on the boat for a few and kinda shrugged it off... beings at least 20 people witnessed it was a little embarrassing ...
I was like "did he just say it was ok to do that in the water here but not on the beach"...
My girl was like NO ! your not going to... lets just go.
I was gonna do it... but there they were up on that dune... just watching.
It felt awkward... so I fired up the boat and split...
Was 3 of us with MD's... heh the third person SAID it was part of State...
HE is now EX MD partner.
