Brian our trusted dock hand, outboard motor repairman and local worm harvesting champion, reminded me again that I should mention something about flyin outpost camp safety and rules on my blog. I thought that was a good idea and asked i-Fred to put together some Billy Flyin Outpost Boot Camp Rules.
Our Internet Marketing Expert Fred has gone completely nuts lately. He can't do anything like normal people anymore. He's on the computer fighting with some spammer or fishing all day, and all night. Absolutely nothing else. We have to remind him that it is dark outside and the sleepy-eyed pike don't see well at night. Anyway he put it together so here it is for you ladies and gentlemen from Cochrane Ontario Canada ...
Flyin Outpost Boot Camp Rules
1. Respect the rules in force. Make sure you observe the quota policy and fish with a permit. The fish is a collective asset that needs to be safeguarded. Waste and excess are unacceptable.
2. Boat carefully and with safe limits. Windy conditions in northern Ontario can be hazardous. Always have and wear your life jacket. Do not drink and operate a boat. Park your boat away from rocks and in designated places.
3. Do not try to fly-out limits of fish. Keep fish out of water as short a time as possible. Air kills fish. Do not kill any northern pike.
4. You are allowed to eat only 2 walleye a day per person as a shore lunch. This is to maintain our quality of fishing.( no bigger than 18inches).
5. Do not throw garbage in the bush. Do not throw fish remains in lake in front of the dock. Fish remains are to be thrown out in middle of lake.
6. Respect catch and release and limits of fish. Violators may be subject to fines ranging from $ 250 to $ 2000, arrest of property and in some cases imprisonment.
7. Make sure all boats, fridge, and camp are cleaned for the next guests. This will ensure you didn’t forget anything and avoid monetary penalties.
8. Garbage. All your garbage is to be double bagged and taken out. Leave tracks not trash. This will help ensure that our next guests won’t have a visit by Mr.Bear.
9. Be respectful of all territory, and infrastructures. In the bush of northern Ontario as elsewhere, theft and vandalism are considered crimes.
10. Things missing. Please tell pilot if there is anything missing or not working properly.
11. Camp Fires. Always check with pilot for camp fire restrictions. Do not use wood cut for camp wood stove for camp fires. Brush and fall downs may be gathered about the area. Keep fire small.
Everything that you should need for an enjoyable, secluded stay is here and should be working well. If something is missing or broken, please let us know so that we can fix it or replace it before the next party comes in. The pilot may not have much time to spend with you before taking off again so please make him aware of any problems with the camp or equipment while he is with you at the camp. He may be able to fix or replace equipment on the spot and all will be well for the next party.
Again, please leave our camps and equipment in good shape for the next party or risk losing your deposit. Thanks for your attention and hope you have a nice fly-in fishing trip.
