Well technically it’s called littering, but to each his own.
I guess when they put your ass in the ground and put a big rock at your head ,and put flowers on your grave its not the same thing.

Waiting on a response Lonster
Not the same at all. Folks are buried in cemeteries that are designed for headstones and flower decorations. What you found was floating debris which was tossed into a navigable stream, by you, since you took possession then placed it in the middle of the river. Who knows, maybe the next person that does this will just place grandpas body in his favorite bass boat and cut him loose to “drift to the Gulf”. What is the size limit on the floating memorial/urn that one is allowed to “release” into a stream?
It sure would piss me off to hit ole Billy Bob’s urn with my prop or my sidescan transducer.
