You're a better person that I am. If I knew, or suspected, that I was not trespassing or fishing illegally, I would have likely told Paul Blart to stick it where the sun don't shine. My wife keeps telling me I need to avoid confrontation but I guess growing up as a BMX punk made me wary of rent-a-cops and security guards.

Well, this issued reared its ugly head again!
Yesterday I was shad fishing in my favorite area in the Occoquan River. I was yelled at by a security guard.
Luckily I knew my legal standing and I had spoken with Fairfax County Water Authority last year. I advised the security guard of the legal issues and she continued to say that I needed to move. Finally I advised her of the legal ramifications of what she was saying and that she didn't have any authority in this matter since I am not attached to the restricted shoreline and I was anchored to the river bottom in my kayak. She hovered for a while and left.
For good measure another email has been sent to Fairfax County Water Authority.
On a separate issue, I watched some people harvest shad out of the river with casting nets. They were employees of the Fairfax County Water Authority. That has been reported to Fairfax County Water Authority also.
