Seen this on the news today, if they are doing it here I’m sure they are trying it in other states.

That's been happening a while. We just ran an article about the same thing in Georgia. I used to work for the WI dnr and heard of a couple people got scammed trying to buy WI fishing licenses.

If people would spend half of the time they do cooking up dishonest "plans" to cheat and steal just studying a new set of skills and then applying it they would actually have a chance of making an honest living.

Here where I am anyone that actually wants to work should have no problems getting a position and then looking for an even better gig. Seems not many any more have placed value in an honest days work for pay.

Bringing in ill gotten gain WILL bring bad things into your world. Personally I work hard and I don't lie, cheat, or steal and I sleep like a baby for it. PLUS I don't have to remember any stories I've told......aside from the fishing tales....

grin


Keep your boots dry and your powder too.

I remember when a fur check was reality.....now I'm just trapping for the love of it.

Best Regards,
