Since I moved to Fl I don't hunt any public or WMA land, so no game wardens around. But I see them from time to time when I'm fishing. They have all been polite, respectful, & personable & even helpful.
On the 4th we went to Cedar Key with the canoe to do some fishing. Before fishing, we use cast nets to catch our own bait. Near the boat ramp my friend cast his 6' net right over a pylon & it wasn't coming off.
A woman standing near by knew one of the game wardens on the air host they just launched & she called them over to help us. The two wardens were very cool & came right over on the air boat & removed the net, we had a little joking & wished them a safe day. We saw them later in the day out on the water, they just waived & went on. In the last 3.5 yrs of fishing at Shell Mound & Cedar Key, we've only been asked if we had fishing licenses 1 time. My friend & I told him we both have the Sportsmen Gold licenses. The warden actually thanked us & wished us a good day.
Not too many egomaniac Ahole game wardens out there like most reg cops.
