US Customs

I have been checked on the ramp at Dana Landing twice by US Customs. They were more interested in looking inside my Kayak than checking my license. Both times they informed me there was a problem with people meeting boats offshore to bring in contraband.

Anyone else been checked by Customs?

I haven't been checked status lately, but I remember a DEA memo that I came across a few years back mentioning a bust off of Malibu.
Some Commercial fishing boat had dumped some bales of Pot overboard and transported in by small boats and Kayaks.
We're becoming targets due to the popularity and innocence of the sport. Who would try and out run a Customs, CG or HP in a Kayak!
