I can't speak for your Game Wardens, in Texas, some GW's cover 3-400 miles by themselves with no back up for hours. They patrol borders and encounter some illegals crossing and smugglers.
One of the most dangerous jobs in Texas. Sorry for his ticket, but your statement about Barney and Game Wardens are off course.
Hookem
Bravo Matty.
I live in RI and I am aware of the j-hook laws in NY, they are there to protect the salmon from "snaggers". It's a good law that is strongly enforced,.......for the benefit of the fish and fisherman.
Take it as a lesson and spread the word, now you know
Wo wo wo, are you telling me it is illegal to use a big set of snagging hooks and work them like a jerkbait in Wood River? :-?
