There is one, well I guess we have a new one too that moved over from navarro county but not sure if he is stationed at the same place. The former navarro guy seems to be solid, I met him once at navarro mills. He wrote me a bogus ticket a while back....it still cost me $75 in "court fees" and gas to beat it. I feel like I still "got fined". Haha. He try to get ya for not having the throw cushion out in visual sight?, yeah that was a new one for me...

No.....he got me for not having my current reg sticker displayed on my hull. I had the boat for two weeks and someone had peeled them off. I show him pictures I had taken a few days earlier of the boat with the decals on them. And told him I had my registration card in my truck. He said I was supposed to have the card in the boat. And then wrote a ticket for "expired registration". I had to drive to Hillsboro and pay a fee to have it dismissed....after I went and payed $20 to get replacement stickers. He was gonna write me for something. He kept digging and digging. I was really glad he wrote it for something I could prove was wrong to a judge.

He could have given the guy a break on the stickers.
As to throw cushion, I didn't know it had to be in plain sight. On my center console not a good place to do that and keep it in the boat at speed. Where do people put them?

I was fishing by myself....yes he asked about my throw cushion too. I had one, under the two extra life jackets, rain gear, and net. Ha. He then told me I should have it easier to access. I just said "yes sir"... as I thought of who would throw it to me. And to top it all off...it was a tourney. He asked how I was doing? I said I had nothing. He responded by sayin I was in last place and could he see my live wells. And then started digging. .....eh. I'm sure he was just doing his thing.
