Please keep comments respectful! We support law enforcement! We had a bad experience with this one but that does not define law enforcement as a whole! You can voice your frustrations in a respectful manner
So, he shows you where the regs are, but, instead of reading the ones on bass real quick and stopping him in his tracks, you follow him. If they say, "I need your DL and your fishing license", you ARE getting a ticket. If your FL is in the car you'll hear, "let's take a walk", "I'll walk with you", in this case.😂 learn the regs, it gives you a better chance with a warden like this. Bodily contact is negated with waders. That sharing fish line is BS. The regs say "in your posession" in any state. He ran that on you because you had just admitted to being a lifelong fisherman that didn't know the regs. My son thought he finally beat me at golf, until I pulled out the rules and added up his penalties😂😂😂JS learn the rules TIGHT LINES!!!!
Sure hope your son doesn't have to hear a 30 min KIA every time he participates in doing something with you
What does supporting law enforcement get you? They are not your friends. They generate revenue for the state, and they exist to control you that’s it. The laws are meant to be confusing to trap you, and provide reason for them to write you up, and take your money and freedoms.
Gentlemen ,I can certainly appreciate your love for legal sportsman fishing but, this officer is the reason why people's respect for law enforcement has steadily declined over the years. The cameras don't lie on what happened to you......nuff said
You respect law enforcement until they shoot you or your kid in the name of " officers safety" Things got insane recently.
The way your son was calling you DAD when he caught a fish is priceless. I didn't have a dad growing up, and my son today rarely calls me. Please never lose that father and son bond.
It truly is a blessing. I was fortunate enough to have a dad that took me fishing and now I get to do the same with my kids. I love when he catches one and wants to let me see. Funny thing is I do the same thing and I’m 43. 😂. Thanks for watching
I live in Ga I'd love to take my family there to fish
What is it called please
Game warden could have warned you without making you leave
You guys were totally legal
I have lived in Ga my entire 67 years and have fished as long as I can remember. I've never heard anything about you can't have contact with the water????? If you wash your hands off in the water after removing a fish is that illegal??? Come on Game warden
I find it funny how most game wardens act like their shit don’t stink! No people skills what so ever. Politeness goes a long way.
It's because they have been programmed to be tyrants.
More of inflated ego
So sorry this happened to you guys! I cannot, for the life of me, how someone gets chastised so blatantly for trying to enjoy a day of fishing with his loved ones.
I completely agree that this nut went over and above his job.
I am 82 years old and have enjoyed fishing for years and have never been subjected to such uncalled for abuse of power and that is exactly what that was.
I wonder if that guy ever thought that a young man that is fishing is not out doing drugs or getting into trouble!
I hope he thinks about his attitude and tries to admen his ways.
You guys keep fishing!
I couldn’t agree more. I really thought man we must of really done something bad the way he acted. I almost stopped him asked him if we were really in this much trouble for legally fishing. I tried to be as nice as possible. Then he still made us leave.🤷♂️
There is always that 1 warden that takes his job and authority way to serious.
There is always those group of fisherman that think regulations dot apply to them and don't take them seriously enough.
Too bad that ass hat isn’t a warden
@@lnash2569 Pooint is
@@AH-gu4jy So what is is he? A leprechaun?
That fishing game officer lied right to your face
They don’t have to know the laws they enforce they just have to believe they know the law. Then it is up to the courts and the individual to figure out who’s right and who’s wrong. If the officer is wrong then the case gets thrown out and nothing happens to the officer that created the inconvenience. Where I live most the wardens cases get thrown out because they write violations hoping anything sticks.
He ran them off so he could catch the fish later.😅
Badge wearing Revenue generating Domestic extortion expert.... nothing more.⚠️😡
Leave it to a Georgia game warden to screw up your day. I have got two tickets from those assholes. Until I learned to outsmart them.
Or, you could just learn the regulations and abide by them.
@@rorybray7487 you are evidently not paying attention. The Warden is the one who needs to learn the regulations he's supposed to know. 😂
Like the eagle claw rod and crawdad. Killer combo. They stack up in that aerated water below any dam. Higher the water the better.
Yes sir! It’s definitely hard to beat
Find out who the game wardens supervisor is and request to talk to the supervisor. Everybody's human and not perfect. But if the game warden is wrong then it needs to be fixed.
Out of all the things going on in the world, he had to run a father and son off who were legally fishing. At least you guys caught tons of fish beforehand!!
True!
Well he was illegally in the water so 🤷 there you go
@@joshuahockman1128he didn’t have to run them off. He could have cited him or educated him and left him alone. He was just being a dick.
@@larrygolden167They didn't have to break regulations either.
All the people in the comments complaining about the game Warren.
If they hadn't broken the laws and regulations they wouldn't have had an issue.
Leave it up to a game warden to ruin a good day.
Thanks!
No contact with the water?? Never heard something so absurd
It’s crazy!
We have some bodies of water in Maine that is the drinking water for the town. You can’t touch the water.
Because of the current?
It's the drinking water for Atlanta during droughts.
Spillways and dam areas can have dangerous areas that become killing machines so they ban swimming near them.
I got to say, I can't help myself if I'm legal I'm not going anywhere.
Brandon and I got more upset than yall I believe, bless you both for feeding the sweet lady, devil uses any means necessary to disrupt family time.
It was definitely frustrating. We agree!
That's some jacked up law if you give a fish away. The person in possession is the one that it goes against their bag limit. If we are in a boat we can put all our fish together and combined we can't be over the limit, and I might be the one to catch them all.
Depends on the state. Where I live, you can't combine limits. If the limit is 10 and your buddy keeps 9, that does not allow you to keep 11.
Giving fish away is a kind of double jeopardy. The fish you give away count toward your limit and the limit of the person who now has the fish. Of course, the cop has to see you give them away, or you have to be stupid enough to tell the cop you gave them away, or the person who got them from you rats you out. Of course, if you don't have any in your possession, it's pretty hard to prove you kept too many.
That's incorrect, at least in Wisconsin, where I'm from. Whoever catches the fish is to whom the catch counts for in regards to their daily limit. There is also a possession limit that is different.
If i catch 50 fish and give 40 to another fisherman. I can catch another 40 to keep for myself.
What a tyrant for sure
Ran em off cause that's his fishing spot on his day off😅
When the game warden came up to you, I felt that this man is always been a bully and he’s good at being a bully even when you’re legal
Pa hardly ever checks for fishing license or anything, I honestly haven't seen a fish game warden in years
We got checked at Glendale recently. They don't cause much of a ruckus. 🎉
I left the state of Georgia because of that crap. My son and I got kicked out of so many public fishing spots by law enforcement by the time my son was five years old that he thought fishing was illegal and would not go fishing. Neither me nor my son have fished since and he is now 32. Tennessee isn't any better. All my friends hunt and fish out of state and I don't leave my property. Bad cops suck! The good ones deserve a thumbs up!
It’s definitely disappointing. I’ve had other encounters that went nothing like that most law enforcement are kind and courteous. I’m sorry to hear you no longer fish try to get out there when you can it’s good for you.
Sorry this public servant ruined your trip. These days I would challenge him.
Power has a problem of going to there head.
We love our law enforcement officers but this was definitely abuse of power.
Bad game warden No DONUT 🍩🍩🍩🖕🖕🏿🖕🏼
Been a sportsmans for 53 years, stopped by dnr several times, never a bad experience. My son on the other hand, had a dnr officer walk up to him 45 minutes before shooting time ended while in a treestand deer hunting, the magic hour. I dont care what anyone says, that was wrong, on so many levels.
You guys are just stand up guys 😂 I feel the fish cop was very nice and tried to be helpful
I have had several encounters with game wardens. This particular 1 I assure is not common. Most are respectful and friendly. They do a job that most people do not want.
@@michaelcampbell7759no they don’t. There’s a huge waiting list to get on the DNR in Michigan. It’s a highly coveted job. What are talking about. It’s a really safe, well paying, great benefit having job. Wild statement.
Wonderful seeing a father and son fishing video. Law enforcement bluffs a lot for a variety of reasons. They get complaints and they have to follow up on them. Decades ago I parked in a shady public parking space to wait for someone. The parking spot was near a playground. A mother called a city cop and he ordered me out or else. I couldn't waste time playing his game so I moved. This type of thing probably happens hundreds times a day. I figure why make a big deal out of it. Besides, some cops are power hungry nut cases. Those types are rare and the other cops don't even like them.
Good video showing that game warden was in the right and how he was calm and collective and nice when you're wrong you're wrong good video thanks guys
Thanks for watching!
Chad loves Barney Fife
Me and kid getting into fishing and hunting for food because the economy has been so rough on us only got my kid a pole atm and haven't had any luck lots of nibbles no bites hope we are blessed to run into some experienced fishers like yourselves to help fill our limit and maybe give some advice setting the rig up best or letting us have a old pole. God bless
Hope y’all run into better luck soon! Keep fishing and things will eventually go your way! God bless
Wow!😮Still gotta watch out for the "G.I. Joe Game Warden". Got 4 sets of cuffs on one belt. He's after you 'n your buddies.😊😅😂
😂
Thats weird about the life jacket thing. We got inspected while back and that was never mentioned. But maybe because we were on a pontoon boat. Thx for the video!
Thanks for watching!
People say we're going fishing!! Don't add word normal unless you were up to mischeif😂😂
I don’t know what surprises you about a Game Warden anywhere! In Louisiana, a game warden will write his momma a ticket then go home and ask her to do his laundry! The first thing they do to them in their training academy is to train the humanity and common sense right out of em! I RETIRED from Law Enforcement ( Sheriff Office) and even WE didn’t care for game wardens. I’ve heard them brag about running some ol country boys through the coals and brag and laugh about it. We gave WAY more breaks to folks when we could than they EVER did around here!
Thats the way it is here in Texas too.
Keep fishin. I love getting out with my son when we can get together. Nothing better.
lol when the gw said can you cast, you dont need to be in the water buhahah
Here in illinois if it says no body contact with water means it's polluted water.
I don't know anything about Georgia, but where I live we call these "game wardens" Barney Fifes because we have to educate them on our state's fishing regulations. I've been fishing for more years than those guys have been alive and I deliberately carry our state fishing regulations with me and read them off to them every single time they make a claim that is false.
SON, Years ago BEFORE you were born there was a song that said, "I fought the LAW and the LAW Won! Glad BOTH of you were compliant!❤Mom
That’s right!
Yeah he needs to have some public skills,no need to be an arse.I would be calling the main DNR office. You guys are awesome and thank you for giving the lady the fish,I would have too.
Officer was in the right. The warden enforcing the the legal length limit is correct better read your regs. No wadding is no wadding. Tried to say you had not kept fish but you had. Beetle spin gang should have got tickets! You all were in the wrong .
We read our regs. No limit on spotted bass which is what we gave! Didn’t realize giving someone fish meant you kept it. Didn’t see any signs saying not to be in the water or else we wouldn’t have
There's one of them boot lickers
If giving fish away is the same as keeping them... I'd be in jail! Years ago, here in North Carolina I gave the guy next to me at least 25 bream, there's a 30 a day limit. The game warden had been watching us. He came over as the guy had 59 total in his possession. I didn't know the guy. I spoke up and said 1/2 of them were mine. He left him alone then. Butt as we were leaving I told the guy to put 30 fish in a bag and I'd meet him up the road. As were were pulling out we were stopped and checked again. I'm glad he didn't have 59 in his "possession" ...
Wow!
You can’t be telling anyone anything, your wife has your balls in her purse so go make her a sandwich and let the men fish.
Two smart ass comments by the warden " can't you cast that far ?"" And "how long have you been fishing?" Equivalent to the traffic cop that says"how long have you been driving?" Just being snarky and escalating instead of de-escalation !
The warden didn’t need to find anything you gave him the reason by wading in the water when it states you can”t. He was doing his job and if we wanted to be strict he could have cited you, instead he opted to have you leave. Count your blessings and go to the next fishing hole.
That’s true he could have cited me the dad for being in the water so I’m thankful that he didn’t. However my son who drove there on his own had a valid fishing license as well never got into the water or did anything wrong was also asked to leave. As much as I love law enforcement in my opinion that’s abuse of power to ask someone who is legally fishing to leave a public fishing area. Oh yea we actually did go find another fishing hole! Thanks for watching!
Actually he didn’t touch the water with his body part, it was his shoes so if you read that and you were in a boat would your body be touching the water.
Stupod
I wish we could see the sign that restricts contact with the water. Was it posted in an obvious place? (How big was it?) If so folks have a responsibility to stop and read them.
Folks also need to read those little FREE booklets that your Game and Fish / Parks and Wildlife dept provide.
That game warden was pretty nice. Entering water that has a no contact designation could have gotten you a ticket.
Folks need to actually read the rules EVERY year.
Best wishes, it turned out good. No fine, no tickets. 👍
You’re right! We probably should read a little more. There were no signs anywhere near the water and I’m not sure where the sign is that he was talking about. We’ll definitely know for next time tough👍
@@FishHookedFishing man! Thank you for such a kind response. You guys both seem like the kind of folks I'd be glad to have as neighbors or kinfolk. Wishing you tight lines and blessings.
Thanks for tuning in! We definitely support our law enforcement and always looking to improve in any way! Tight lines and God bless!
Here's another boot lickers
Sweet lady was very thankful for the fish i found a guy like that one time probably in his 70s I gave him probably 10 catfish he said I thank god sent you to help me tonight I felt so good about that
Old warden had a woodpecker .
He musta really got turned on about hassling those fellas having a family outing .
I’ve had similar experiences here in Missouri wasn’t a game warden but a police officer though trying to tell me I was trespassing on private property whilst I was in a canoe in creek
What kind of GoPro do u guys have? What’s a good cheaper one for me just starting out? Thanks guys
We use a hero 10 and 7! I started one a hero 3 silver I bought on eBay! So whatever you can find that fits your budget will do the job!
The game warden was a tyrant you didn't do nothing wrong and did not deserve any tickets at all y'all handle yourself respectfully and too him respectfully when he was acting like an authoritarian , documenting this interaction posting, his actions will reflect on himself
Well he did wade into the water that says no bodily contact.
Why do people take jobs like this that they obviously don't like. This cop was just aggressively rude in his responses.
Imagine if our forefathers where here to see this.
I can’t imagine my grandfather hearing this!😂
From now on, I am going to refer to you guys as Bo and Luke. Apparently, Boss Hog told Roscoe Picotrain to come down and show you the law.
I was just there for the first time last week. I was actually kicked out of lake kedron and was directed by the marshal to come here as it’s legal to fish there as long as you have a license.
Why did Marshall kick you off lake
The county where we fish in ga only allows residents from their own county to fish in their reservoirs unless you buy a 300$ a year parking pass. The other park we were at is one of the only exceptions.
Marshal did the same to me at a lake in Peachtree city. I never ever see anyone fishing it. Those rich people there got better things to do than fish. Why can I not just pay a day pass like every other county. Fucking blows my mind.
After watching the end of the video I resend my comment! He was a power freak. You did the correct thing but I feel that you should make a trip to see his supervisor. Ask for your equipment back and an apology from him face-to-face. You might also ask for a written approval to fish that area
We have no contact lakes around here. If it's posted, then there's no argument.
Tons of fun! It did look to me that the fish were small, and should have been thrown back. Those are too small in my state. Length Limit:
Largemouth bass: 14 inches minimum unless otherwise posted.
They were spotted bass. Red eyes tongue patch the whole 9 yards. Spotted bass in the state of ga have no minimum length except for lake Lanier where they have to be 14 inches minimum. The spots hybridize with our native shoal bass which is a big problem in our streams and rivers. We don’t have any small mouth bass any where near us which he referred too. Thanks for watching
It looks like the warden was looking for any thing to get he could get you for
Typically catch & release are good habitats but if your that lady and you have got more days in the month then your money can stretch, those fish are her family's next meal so realize there are alot of families struggling today so maybe next time u will have a choice to release those fish or FEED A FAMILY
Could've been a ticket for breaking the law. He said read the sign. Respect the law .
I ALWAYS have a printed copy of the regs with me of the area I am fishing.
Never use my phone...
Along with the standard regs, I will have a copy of any special rules for that specific area.
It has saved my butt several times.
Wardens may have a basic idea of the regs, but they can't know the details of every single spot.
in FL they did away with paper print lisences have to use your phone now or buy a card for $6 sucks
Aye boys that’s what I call fishing right there
Is that the one and only game warden magnet himself??
In the parking lot over here at the apartments, I was walking through the gravel to go check the mail and stepped off the curb
I Have always helped others get their limit of fish
Welcome to america, the land of the free right?
THAT COP DID YOU WRONG,YOU HAD A RIGHT TO FISH THERE
Here in Texas there is a spillway on Guadalupe river and there are signs prohibiting you from getting that close to spillway.I assume its to keep knot heads from trying to swim there.Im not sure though.I dont see any signs where you are.Not sure about that particular bass,not sure if we have those.You did catch a crappie though,those definitely have a limit.The regulations apply to any body of water thats not private i believe.
Yeah there we no signs anywhere near the water. And the crappie limit 30 per person daily.
Starrs mill. I watched this because I recognized that. Yes it is Line creek . I googled Starrs mill fishing, and yes it states no body contact with the water. Lake Kedron , Peachtree, and Horton , McIntosh fall under said rules. I guess if you went down hwy 85 to Coweta(bridge at Coweta , Fayette line), it does matter because you can swim or get in the water at line creek nature reserve or def Lake Peachtree, which I have personally seen as I live off that lake. It's EXTREMELY hypocritical for them to say it's ok in this part of line creek but not here. He seems to back pedal on lengths , amount of fish you can take. The most informative piece is about if you give fish away to folks asking for them. Hence I fish for fun , throw back . This cement that because they , Johnny law , will hold you to that..They , the receiver, could say you gave them ALL the fish..
You need to state your points to the officer! If you don't tell him that he's wrong then they will always be right!
We probably should have! We definitely will if we meet again
I give crappie away all the time at boat ramps, the shore-anglers can't believe how big the ones out in the main lake are and are pleasantly surprised. I also give away Largemouths that are gut hooked/heat stressed or too skinny and deformed genetics.
File a complaint aginst him, if you don't he will continue to do what he is doing.
He has no idea what he is talking about.
He's a tyrant and needs to be stopped.
You: enjoy catching fish. Also you: keep all the little fish and give em away to someone who’s gonna eat em. Also you five months later: how come there ain’t no fish here anymore?
Always a moron like Esther here, running their ignorant mouth. Warden checked the size, yet Esther somehow knows better. What a dingus you are!
Its a river, they replenish faster than lakes or ponds
@davecfishing7907; so if one person thinks it’s ok, now ten people think it’s okay. When ten people think it’s ok now 100 people think it’s ok. Now they’re ain’t no fish. See a trend amigo??
I would definitely file a complaint on him. Otherwise he's going to do that to somebody else
I knew Line Creek as a child in Coweta County, and i know where people swim in the river.
I never heard no contact with water, I think the judge see this video he would die laughing so hard. I can say this if any law was broken that's 100% ticket no breaks. So they did not breack one law.
Would 100% file a complaint on that Warden
they act like everyone is guilty of something.
Nah , that guy is just an ego maniac . You gotta act like that to a father and son fishing legally?? This is why people don’t like game wardens . He took an opportunity to educate and turned it into a bad experience.. I’ve only had a few experiences with wardens over the years for license checks, and they have all been with guys just like that .. zero reason to make you leave .. awful discretion on his part
I've dealt with this Marshal many times never had an issue with him
That’s good!
Show me the man and ill find you his crime . Our Country is in trouble.
I think you guys need to realize he gave you a break. He never said anything about the fish, giving it to the lady. He said, you weren't supposed to be in the lake or in a stream, whatever you want to call it. He has the opportunity of the right to cite you for that violation. You did not. read the sign. You were not obeying the rules. He gave you. an option. Take a fine. or leave and don't come back for 24 hours.
That's wrong to keep them small fish like that let the damn things grow
Talk about a power hungry individual. If you don’t see the sign by mistake it really doesn’t matter how many umpteen years it’s been up but he had to really stress that point like he’d just caught someone poaching a moose. You’d think god with a badge would have better things to do that would actually make a difference. He did manage to collect a little more money for the next game wardens picnic. 😎
Forgive me for coming out of harsh like that. The thing is, as a grown man, you're teaching your son. on how to respond to future encounters with law enforcement of any kind. You may feel that he was wrong or that he was trying to look for something to hold against you. Still, if you sit back and listen to the video and really critique it, you'll see that he was doing everything he could not to charge you, telling you to leave for 24 hours was an option he had so that he didn't have to site you. I don't think he was too harsh. I don't know how much to find would have been, but let's say the fine was $200, in 24 hours when you come back you still will have $200 in your pocket and you can fish all you want, like the gentleman said in the comment below. I respect your son and how he looks up to you. You can tell by the way he responded to you that he has the utmost respect for you. He loves you just that much. So again I'm sorry for coming off harsh but I think we need to start realizing we're teaching our young future generation. It might feel strange or upset you, but no matter how basic the law may seem, we need to obey it. I hope you two do come back and make more videos. I enjoy them. Thanks.
I appreciate him not righting us up! I felt like we were pretty respectful as well. We would never try to have confrontation with law enforcement! We thought it could’ve been handled slightly differently but overall it went well
@timothywjohnson4187 I didn't think of it that way but that's a good take on it. He seemed like a d bag in the video , but that's probably just his personality and he didn't give him any tickets when it looked like he could have. After reading your comment I may see it a little differently.
Yo! Could you link or state that exact fishing lure you've been using? Would be greatly appreciated!
Was it the beetle spin or the rooster tail?
@@FishHookedFishing I think it might have been the rooster tail. The one you were using was orange
@lxAngelsJourneyxl yep! This is the rooster tail! You can find it at pretty much any Walmart
Here is my issue with your ending
1. You are complaining about not getting a citation because you broke a law. He gave you the option ti just leave.
2. He educated you about giving away fish still counts as your limits.
3. Technically you being in the water and catching those fish was against the laws in that spillway. Which means you used an illegal method catching those fish....ie: in the water.
4. You say you were doing things by the book....yet you were in the water.
I do agree that it wasnt a big deal. But you are playing victim and yet you broke a law/rule. Then he educated you about the laws of giving away fish.
I fish my self too, I just can not understand why people choose to mess with people fishing!!! Law or not, Leave us a lone!! You are not hurting Anything at all!!! People just suck!!! Unless you are on a private land or private pond, you should not be harassed!!!
I see a truck that says Marshal? I do not see Georgia Department of Natural Resources? I also noticed he didn’t identify himself as a game warden much less any other official department. Guys you got duped. What you should have done was actually call the game warden.
just a heads up you have your drivers license in full view at 16:07
Someone please explain to me what the heck "umpteen years," is. I was astonished at the G.W. P. Officer's attitude and lack of respect. He needs to be run back through their Academy or dismissed.
Can't give ya fish away to an old lady, someone was mad..
Not bothering anyone,within the regulations other than getting your feet wet and was a honest mostake,dont understand why he couldnt just give a warning and let yall keep fishing flex of power,yall in "his fishing spot,or having a bad day? I've been approached many times over the years and only 1 out of maybe 20 game wardens acted that way
.guess he's just another one
If you’re not supposed to be in the water all the fish you caught while in the water and gave away were illegal. Another thing I thought I noticed was you said if you give away a fish and it was illegal then it would also be your responsibility. I would think that would be obvious.
If that were true he would have given me a ticket for all the fish. Ga law restricted him from that. It’s a pretty far reaching obscure county rule not law that I couldn’t be in the water. That I very seriously doubt would hold up in court since it we have a right to fish all navigable waters in ga. You also can legally fish from a kayak there and honestly that’s not much different than being in the water. It’s not obviously your responsibility when you give anything away. In good faith you can give away a fish to someone who you think needs it but what if that person is already over the limit for that day. They could say you gave them all the fish so they don’t get in trouble. Obviously we’re not out here to give away illegal fish and record ourselves doing that. The fish we gave away were spotted bass and brim. There are no length limits on spotted bass except for lake Lanier they have to be 14” long. No size limits on brim you can keep up to 50 in the state of ga fishing regulations. I know to the average person who don’t fish it appears the warden was educating me however to those of us who fish regularly you realize that the warden himself had very little knowledge of the regulations the fish species in our area and it’s all on camera. Thanks for watching
Dudes arms are cooked
his drag nob is so loose the spool is spinning
That’s NOT a State Game Warden! He’s a county Marshal who’s enforcing county ordinances. BIG difference!
Most Game Wardens who come across as “bullish” is because of the reaction they’re receiving in dealing with the constituents. As a career Game Warden, it continually amazed me at how many people managed to talk their way from a verbal warning into a trip to jail because they thought they knew the law better than I did…I always tried to be as polite and pleasant as I could, but some people would just have to ruin my day.
Here in pa, and as far as I know, there are different size and creek limits on differnt fish depending on the water way,,, so. For me this is odd ,,very odd
Yeah it was definitely odd
Didn't you know anything is fun? It's legal now.
This is why people hate law enforcement
I never ran into a game more than like that in my life all the ones I’ve run into a pretty cool there’s always one out of a bunch
If the sign says you can't go in the water, then you can't go in the water. Where i live, anything you shoot or catch counts against your bag limit- even if you give them away. If someone sees you that is. When it comes to hunting or fishing, the laws are confusing and just plain dumb. They do that on purpose.
Hope he didn't want ya'll clear of the area before he did whatever he wanted to her.
So you have to measure fish you release in GA? I'm so confused as to what he was going to write a ticket for. You weren't over the catch or size limit. You can give fish away as long as you aren't over the catch limit. Was it going to be for wading in the water?
Yea after we went through the whole spill about limits and sizes that really didn’t have anything to do with our fishing that day. He decided to make us leave because I had been in the water. There is a sign there not anywhere near the water that says you must fish from the bank. Not a ga law but a county rule specific to that park apparently. However my son never got into the water or did anything wrong and he was still asked to leave.🤷♂️ I don’t know where you live but it’s getting tough out here in middle ga.😂
