These are some good stories. I've been checked a few times by game wardens. Only got a ticket the first time I was checked. Me and my brother went dove hunting and hadn't been gone 10 minutes. Neither of us knew we were supposed to have plugs in the shotguns. $100 fine each. That was OK, we were wrong, but the warden was still @$$. A warning would have been sufficient. Was checked several other times by him too, couple times he could have wrote a ticket but didn't, just a warning. I think that if they get to know you abit it helps them decide what kind of person they are dealing with. They can tell alot of times who's out breaking the laws on purpose and who isn't. I think its good to get to know them some. They can be of great help to you some times.
