You have no Idea how many bald face lies that I have heard over my career. For those of you that are or thought about getting a degree in this field, the pay will get better the longer that you work. I still love to fish and hunt and have plenty of opportunity to do so. If you like the outdoors, it is the best job in the world. If there are any more game wardens out there please chime in and help me out.
I ain't from Tenn PossumCop,, but I thank you.

I've been pulled over and checked out by fish cops in a vehicle and in my boat many times. I've never had a problem with them giving me tickets I didn't deserve.
Although I've only gotten one ticket, that was dismissed, when I went to court. I explained to the judge, there was not a law for the charge. That office that gave me the ticket was appreciative that I clarified the ruling.
Now,,, on the other hand. If I had gotten the ticket and the law was clear? I would have been more then happy it was issued and would have paid.

Bullfrog, it sounds like your against most rules and have a problem with authority as a whole.
If you feel so wronged by your DNR or the people that want to keep up the 'system'.
By all means,,,,,,,,,,,,get out there and VOTE.
