sounds like a lot of post traumatic stress syndrome going on over a hunting,fishing license draw , sort of like the final showdown when the music was playing before they opened fire in The Good The Bad and The Ugly I was asked to produce tags in NY.or OH. no watching their eyes, no drama ,simply just produced the thing! AI AI AA WA WA WA.

I get checked 5-6 time per year while hunting and never had a problem. This year I kept my license in my pocket and not once did they say anything about it being there when I pulled it out in front if them. I have always kept in in my pocket while small game and any hunting I'm walking through thick brush and again even in last years not one time did they even complain or ask why. Even while fishing I keep it in a pocket and have never had a problem there either.

Like somebody already said if you know your local wardens and you never give them a reason to cite you they won't even bother you other then a simple "how's it going? Doing any good?" heck while fishing the spillway at Pymy last year, everybody was checked but me because I know the warden and he has seen me throw back 15-16" walleye and fish with no hooks in the mouth but on the outside of the lips even. When he said that hooked on the outside of the lips I good to keep, I told him that no fish is worth a fine and I will catch more that are inside the mouth.

If you don't break a law, you have nothing to worry about.

The last thing I need is to have any sort of contact/exchange with a revenue enhancement officer.

Don't ya think if they want to look at your tags, their gonna look anyways? whether in your wallet or on back.

In PA, they're just going to hassle you no matter what. I try to do most of my sporting out of state now.

hehehe
