Last year at the Silver lake boat launch, duck season. We left for a day of hunting, along with 3 or 4 other boats and hunters. When we all came back, at aprox. the same time. We found a ford ranger and boat trailer backed down the ramp and into the water, with no boat and no one around. We hollered, looked around. Waited half an hour.. Now this is a one boat ramp, and no way for us to get out. Many of us were about to do something to the truck, figuring they went hunting and left it on the ramp. Thoughts and talk of shooting the tires out, rolling the truck and trailer into the lake. etc. etc. Well finally someone couldn't take it any longer, as one of the hunters was calling the sheriffs dept. to have it towed. Another broke into the truck and was going to go ahead and take it out of gear and let it sink. Just as he was taking it out of gear the sheriffs dept showed up... They saw what was going on and the line up of people. They just laughed, and told the guy that they should probably turn their back and let them have there fun. Well that calmed things down. And soon a tow truck arrived. They towed the vehicle away along with the trailer. They waited another hour, and after the others left. We stayed and watched. The guys showed up. We couldn't hear it all, but got a hefty fine. And a ride to somewhere??? They had been fishing and drinking, heard them say they thought nobody used the boat launch...
