Fishing trip gone bad!

Well Kris got home a little early from work today so we decided to go fishing on the paddle boat since it was nice outside. So we gathered everything together and headed down to Utah Lake in dad's red truck but half way there we ran out of gas. Kris jumped out and pushed us around the corner and then went and got gas. Then we headed back home to switch to our truck. After we unloaded the paddle boat and all of the other things from one truck to the next we were head back to lake for a relaxing evening fishing. So we get to utah lake unload the paddle boat and everything else and start paddling. We paddled over to the first bouyi where we stopped so Kris could bait his fishing pole. We were only about 40 ft from shore and had been on the lake for about 5 minutes when we see a fish cop pull up next to our truck and wave us over. When we got to shore she told us we had to have life jackets and gave us a ticket. She said even if you're on a raft you have to a life jacket. So needless to say it wasn't the fishing trip we planned on.
