FISHERMEN/Clearing things up.....

[1captainron]

Going to clear this up now before it gets out of hand.....Marijuana is NOT legal on a Federally documented vessel!!

With that being said, DO NOT Smoke that shit on my boat. Don't sneak it in the Bathroom, don't come to the Top deck where it blows into my wheelhouse.

Customers complain, people with children complain, I'm complaining now. I don't want to hear it's for Medical purposes either, do it in your car or where ever else you have to.

It's gotten ridiculous, Sorry but not going to deal with it anymore.
Capt. Ron

what??.. really?.. Is smoking dope THAT important to some people that they can't even enjoy a day on the water fishing without getting high??...Geez even when I used to smoke reefer 45 years ago I would not smoke when I was fishing,, fishing is a contemplative, relaxing, often exciting sport.. Not an opportunity to get your mind bent .... whatever..... bob

Your boat, your rules, Capt.!
Enough said.

I was just looking at the stats and I see marijuana has surpassed alcohol in usage. I do understand on Federal waters though.

God Bless you Captain Ron.

The only positive is people who caught nothing actually leave thinking they caught their limit

Personally, I never understood the concept of getting blasted while fishing. Before smoking horseshit became all the rage, a lot of people would bring mass quantity of beer on ice to consume while fishing.. probably many still do.. I dunno, kind of spoils the entire "day on the water" vibe/ no?... Might be something that capt Ron as well as all the other party and charter captains will have to discuss and make clear with their fares from now on.. Kind of a shame its come to that really. These days people love their dope.... bob

The ironic thing is marijuana is a great cure for seasickness surpassing ginger, Bonine and Dramamine.

But yes, I'm with the others, there is a time and a place, I also could never figure out the consuming of mass quantities of alcohol while fishing, probably the same people that pack a gigantic cooler of food for a 3/4 day bluefish trip.
