Im gonna wait at the gate for you to come out while observing your actions from a hidden location. If I see no violations you will never know I was there...

If it were an isolated incident most of us wouldn't give it a second thought... But they're hardly isolated. We had one around here who was notorious for always "getting his man" until he got caught in some less-than-legal maneuver. He wound up quietly "retiring" from the force.

I understand that Swamp Wolf... But for every person on here who has had nothing but positive experience with wardens there is at least one, if not two, who can tell a different tale.

I had a run-in with the warden I referenced above. I was in the right... and after repeated aggressive questioning for 45 minutes he realized I was in the right and relented. The attitude of, "I know you're guilty and I'll keep hammering on that until you fold" erased any respect I had for his position. I follow the laws because I'm cheap and don't feel like giving ODWC anymore money than I have to... I've never had a wildlife violation and never plan to... But that isn't due to respect for the wardens.

After the experience I just related, and serving as a jury foreman on a wildlife case... The taste in my mouth just won't go away. Nothing personal, but the damage is done.

I didn't read the whole thing but it seems the op broke the law and is now crying because he got a fine? Am I reading this right?


Now with that said any experienced trapper should know how to handle a digger.

What other angle is there? That dang warden should have minded his own business and over looked the fact joe had traps set illegally. The audacity of you dang wardens is something else! laugh

Mike .... I’ve had multiple wildlife violations... in fact I violate wildlife on a regular basis... but not having a cushion with a strap on it in a cat fishing boat shouldn’t cost $500... or a buck with a 12 1/2 inch spread cost you the loss of meat and another $ 500 .... now there might be a couple that I earned fair and square back in the day lol

.... almost got arrested for frog gigging by a game warden one time ... but I was able to outwit him lol
