Cartoon - Fishing on the wrong side of the law

Once or twice while out fishing I have found myself in waters that were privately owned. It can be an easy mistake to make. Following the waterway downstream can occasionally lead me off the public park I was in and into someone's farmland without realizing. Looking up to notice barbed wire fencing along the shore is usually a good indicator it's time to turn back. A red faced farmer staring me down is another subtle hint I've gone a step or two too far.
