Took my son to Bear Lake as he wanted to go fishing...it was around 8:30pm and I figured he would only be interested for a little while anyways...

So we get there and the main fishing dock (the one with rails) has three MEN out there and what appeared to me as one INFANT siting in a car seat. Now I being a nice guy gave them the benefit of the doubt and figured well maybe one of the three MEN was actually under 15 since this lake is juvenile and disabled only.......

....but in actuality all of the three men were indeed NOT under 15....all three smoked...and the youngest looking one was the one who was changing the INFANT's diapers. Yeah I doubt the child was much more older than a year to year and a half...and to top it off they had an UNLEASHED rottweiler on the dock...which growled at us as we walked by on the shore....I'm glad I didn't intend to fish off the dock anyways.

So here is the ethical question...the lake does permit an adult to accompany a child under 15 or a disabled person...but I hardly doubt three people who need to accompany an INFANT...and this is what really angered me as a parent. The little INFANT was allowed to walk up and down the dock freely by itself...all three MEN having their backs turned to the child.....all I have to say to them is....HAPPY FATHER'S DAY....i really wanted to say something to them but I had my 2yr old son with me...who caught a small bluegill all by himself...well I did cast it for him lol...and I didn't want to start a confrontation in front of him....I'll be glad when the county parks dept takes over control of the lake....although I hate having to pay such a price....

....and thanks to the guy who was fishing in the spot before me who left the big wad of waste fishing line....I threw it away for you.
