Well they are at it they can take down gps coordinates, to check back after Bob house is gone, and if a Mess is left then send a fine.

I believe enforcing something like this will take man power, but I don't believe it will be a nightmare...

Keep in mind by law every bob house is supposed to have the owners name and address attached.

Bottom line is that this is littering...

So if someone leaves trash 10 feet from your yard it MUST be yours and you get a fine for it? A total nightmare waiting to happen in my opinion. I don't totally disagree with the concept of a fine but that won't work. Hey, just my .02 your mileage may vary...

When we were kids, my family rented a cottage on the lake each summer. We had a large family with 8 kids. My father said it was a sign of respect to keep your environment clean. It showed others that you are proud of your name. He said the owners of the cottage would show our cottage to prospective renters rather than other rented cottages because we respected the owners and cared for their property. Care and respect. Maybe that is what the few ice fishermen lack. Lack of respect for the lake and for themselves, since the bob houses are registered in their names.
Thanks to all who made the effort to clean it up. Thank you very much!
