My co-workers were fishing in the St Lawrence around the Saunders Generating Station. They were following the school of fish around with the fish finder for an hour or two. Eventually they wandered a few feet onto the US side.
The American authorities came roaring out yelling and screaming while waving guns . As if they were fending off an all out invasion and in the process saving 10,000's of Anerican lives from death, disease and slavery.
We didn't think a 6lb walleye fish was worth that much fuss. And wondered how they ignore the border area with the native reservations, adjacent on both sides of the river.

The US guards outright freak and are just about ready to shoot first and ask questions later . On somebody they have watched work around the place for years.
On the Canadian side the guards ask how your day is going and what the fishing was like on your day off. Then they pass the box of TimBits over to you to share.
