In instances like this I would be inclined to call the environmental police. If it's a public lake and or state property the EPOs will set the local guys straight. This happens alot during hunting season throughout the country.

I see now that this post is from Canada, not sure how your laws work but I imagine it would be similar? Do you guys have game wardens?

Yes, we have wardens, but their powers and mandates are very limited here. They can't arrest people, just give wildlife related fines. As I was still in season on that lake, it had noting to do whit them. The police came because people called them about me being on potentially thin ice, a nearby jurisdiction ance sent the fire dept in similar case with me. Knowing my rights and being nice/reassuring about it did the trick.
