I've encountered game wardens in Ohio, W.Va, Tenn, and Minn. Besides checking license, they all were polite, professional, friendly and chatted about fishing for a moment before moving on. That's the way you are treated by someone who loves their job.
I always tell them I am not interested in what they are selling when they approach me and to get a real job that is productive for society... usually sends them on their way or they get indignant and I record them looking like fools over having fun at the water.
@@KatrinEgilsdottir ah Yes… game wardens have real jobs with the same jurisdiction and power as state police if not more… they uphold wildlife and criminal laws if you don’t like it don’t hunt it’s common knowledge amongst hunters what dnr do and their purpose obey conservation laws and you won’t have a problem
I’ve had plenty of encounters with TWRA especially camping and fishing in the mountains. They’ve always been cool with me. I had a 20 min conversation with one about Bigfoot after he checked my license and stuff. “Said” he’d never seen one but had a lot of reports and said he doesn’t think it’s a BF but there is something weird in these East Tennessee mountains that they can’t explain
Always like having a conversation with game wardens and sheriff fishing. Had the sheriff and game warden called on me by some prick while fishing the wildlife area and I was fishing someone spot and he told me to leave I told him it's a public wildlife area I don't have to move while we waited on the warden and sheriff I caught 4 nice channels. When they finally got there this guy told them a line of crap and little did he know I went to high school with deputy who made sure I had my fishing license but when they went to check for his he didn't have it and he had a cooler with a aerator running in the bed of his truck with bait fish in it so he got busted for being in possession of the bait fish without a fishing license. I was listening when they ran his name turns out he had is fishing and hunting privileges revoked for like a year or two so they arrested him and I went back to fishing.
Arrested for fishing... atrocious!! They should all be ashamed and you shouldn't be proud that they stepped on his God given right to fish just because he was mean to you and he shouldn't have tried to tell you how to live your life either... those mindsets are why society is the way it is now. A lisense to fish or hunt is quite possibly the most immoral thing imaginable. "Either buy our food or pay to hunt the food that God put here for everyone"... they charge you for something that isn't theirs in the 1st place. Game wardens need to get a real job that is actually productive to society instead of leeching around charging people for idiotic fishing lisenses and telling others how to live their lives.
@@KatrinEgilsdottir for one wasn't proud of it, for two wasn't going be bullied by some asshole, for three he's the one that called them not me, for four I didn't really care about him being mean to me I just kept fishing while he was being a Karen. I also don't think you get the concept of the importance of game wardens, and the purchasing of hunting and fishing licenses. The purchasing of hunting and fishing license goes towards wildlife conservation, state parks, state forest, and wildlife areas. The game wardens job is to prevent poaching, over fishing and hunting.
@@KatrinEgilsdottir another thing it's whatever state you live in Division of Natural Resources that charges for the license fee. And I'll be more than proud to pay that fee because it goes towards wildlife conservation and the preservation of wildlife areas.
@@KatrinEgilsdottir If we didn’t have Game Wardens, there would be no regulations or wildlife left for others to enjoy. They’re responsible for breeding and stocking fish on an annual basis, building new park facilities, maintaining outdoor resources, and preventing poachers from taking hundreds of fish over the limit that hinder the population. You sound like one of those cheap “nomadic” leeches of society who want to enjoy all the fruits of labor everywhere but doesn’t want to pay for its work.
In my area. Their was briefly. A by the book ranger that was ridiculous .... I saw him give parking ticket to car in a gravel parking lot for not parking correctly. Kind of hard in a unmarked lot.....we got rid of him by fileing constant complaints about him..... And the local judge started dismissing all his tickets whether or not the person showed up for court
@@Foust74 more like supper mall cop.. Still dont know to this day who he pissed off to the point the local judges would blanket throw out all his tickets...
Grew up with a friend his dad was a game warden he stopped some guys shore fishing both didn't have a license the one guy started arguing they both been drinking all day. One pulled a knife ended up getting shot he didn't die but was paralyzed from it over a stupid fishing license. He told us other stories too was really surprised how dangerous being a game warden can be. He said the biggest thing was being alone with back up sometimes an hour away.
Maybe he should have gotten a real job instead of driving around hassling people if he was worried about people fishing. Game wardens and rangers always act holier than thou and nose into business that isn't theirs. A lisense to fish is immoral and asinine... nobody should be able to charge you for something that doesn't belong to them in the 1st place. All critters were put here by God for us to use freely... not so some pompous ass can charge you to fish. They claim it is to stop overfishing, lol... If they really cared about that they would make it against the rules, not charge you to do it.
@@KatrinEgilsdottir You’re brain dead. Game wardens keep people like you from fucking up the environment. The money that gets spent on people buying fishing licenses gets use to preserve the natural resources of this country. If you don’t like it then stay in your house and read your bible.
@@KatrinEgilsdottir the licencing organizations manage the public waterways , enforce water quality and usage regulations, stock the most popular species of game fish (trout, bass, crappie, and some others) clean up and reintroduce wildlife to polluted areas ,purchase lands for public use, and yes enforce creel limits. Why don't you spend your time countering some actually significant government waste instead of targeting one of the very few government organizations where you can literally see your tax dollars and fees being used for the national benefit. Elk again roam the great smokey mountains due to licensing fees (even a hunting season on them in Kentucky!) , all the deer in the east are the result of a wildly successful reintroduction program. More trout are raised in DNR hatcheries and released for sportsman to catch than are naturally bred in America's rivers.
To each his own, but never seen anyone switch hands to reel an open faced spinning reel. Every open faced spinning reel I own the handle is reversible so I can mount it so I don’t have to switch hands to reel.
Well it's not impacted my abilities by any means and I most definitely forgotten about more foshbive caught that you're ever going to catch in a lifetime. Soooo...
Game wardens are cool all they care for is your license and fish I always have a bottle of tequila when I’m out late fishing and they never tell me nothing on any alcohol they just wanna make sure I got the license and legal fish sizes
Most of the GW’s I’ve met are pretty cool guys… They can give some pretty good advice on where the fish are biting too since they are out there around the water all the time. My niece got a ticket once just for carrying her husbands rods… She said I don’t even fu*kin fish! Lmao she was super pissed about that. I always assumed you had to be caught in the act of fishing without a license or have fish in your possession but apparently that’s not the case…😅
I never thought to grab shad up there. Do you just cast net off the wall? I've caught some nice fat spots there and one striper but that's about it really. Lots of 1-2 lb fish. I'm gonna need you to do some more striper vids soon..I got a lot to learn lol
The game warden i ran into in ohio was just a hole . Was 95 degrees and i forgot my water bottle cuz i move around alot when i fish asked if i could go get it that i didnt mean to leave it he was like you can tell the judge tommorow i was like ok told the judge the next day and he didnt charge me for anything
Thanks for the video but why would a right-handed person switch to their left with a spinning outfit when you can do it all with just keeping it in your right hand and switching the handle to your left side. Try it you might like it.
Why do you cast with your right hand and reel with your right hand?? Have to change hands after every cast?? Somebody never taught you how to use a spinning rod.
Everyone perceives it differently. In most cases people think the Game Wardens are rude and inconsiderate just trying to ticket people. Here I show you they're not like that at all. Sorry your perception differs.
My favorite lure to fish with in waters like that is a very lightweight gold panther Martin gold and black I should say throw It across an upstream let it drift on a tight line where you can feel the blade spinning till it gets down to the end of the drift and then reel it in double cross and let it drift again I've caught a lot of smallmouth bass a lot of trout this way
I too was a panther Martin fan until I found out about thunder mist lures spinners, they don't bend like panther Martins and they cast a mile... Check them out man I'm serious it will change your fishing success. I got tired of rusty panther Martins that bend or the blade doesn't work right. I catch hundreds of trout a year and am a professional angler not a weekend warrior so I need things that last and are quality, forgot to mention they have better hooks than the panther Martins. I'm not affiliated with them at all they are out of Canada and used their years of manufacturing experience and love for fishing to make their own lures and terminal tackle.
Cry a little harder dude. This is all about a game warden and if you think we would be better off without them, you’re a clown. I’ve had wardens check me hunting and fishing, investigate a poaching that I came across, and watched them get a reckless and drunk driver on OWI/DWI in a campground full of kids.
@@samdixon7232 and I’ve watched all kinds of cops ignore evidence of wrongdoing by other cops/military. They let my wife get abused when she was in HS because her dad was a vet despite me having video.
All Michigan DNR while approaching you , have already decided you have done something wrong. Some have no clue about hunting or fishing or trapping. They are just more cops.
Not all of them! The lady that works the Au Train area in the U.P is cool. The ones around Manistee area have been great. The ones I've come across on the east side of the state, there's many that just assume everyone is a liar! Here's the thing, as long as you have not broken any laws, nothing to worry about. Some are able to separate one encounter to the next, but others can not, so they hold onto that bad interaction and carry it on to the next person, unfortunate for the public.
I’ve never had an experience with a conservation officer that was positive. I haven’t violated angling regulations but there is always a harassment, asking for license, then pretending to be my friend and asking me stupid shit
You meant to say he didnt violate you you know something about this forth amendment right thing. Fishing licenses are a tax on our inherent right to fish if you look up 16U.S. code ss 742a congress even recognizes it so why are they getting away with taxing an inherent right ?

Game warden: Catching anything
Dude: avoids question proceeds to say what he did early on
Game wardens better stay off my private property. Even English common law got that right
I dont get with having a license to hunt or catch food. When did it become illegal to survive?
i like how nice he was that is how it should be
Game wardens are cool all they care for is your license and fish I always have a bottle of tequila when I’m out late fishing and they never tell me nothing on any alcohol they just wanna make sure I got the license and legal fish sizes
You wouldn’t have to switch hands with the rod and reel if reel handle is on the left side. If you are right handed then your reel is set up wrong

Black and chartreuse tube works best for me. Ultralight fishing can be entertaining if you hook a big un.
Yeah if your legal you have nothing to worry bout the wardens around here know me well they don’t check me anymore they know I’m legal.
Well that's always the case
If you cast with right hand you need to reel with left hand

I always love our game wardens theyre all super friendly and nice
Casting right hand retrieve left handed that handle can go on the opposite side
It's my Uncle and Dad's fault lol!! I grew up bass ackwards and I can't change ti save my life!! Lol!
What state is that in? It’s beautiful out there!!

Why cast with your right hand then switch hands & reel with your right?
I do that too, but I also use the opposite side on a bait caster reel than I do a spinning reel
