Is that legal? I wouldn't think so if he already had a limit or close to it. These were sandbass. I know it's illegal to sell to the fish markets. Some were busted a while back. He was a short fat bald guy.

It's illegal to sell game fish be it to a business or a individual.

I'm with Chris on this one hahahaha. But I wouldn't think TPWD would undercover sting fishermen who were not soliciting business. The person was looking to buy it, you weren't looking for people to sell to. Just sounded like he didn't know.

**** Off Topic *** Why bother working undercover ? Just be at Hwy 31 - Neches and Hwy 31 - Kickapoo and write tickets at dark for watercraft coming in with no lights.

Wheather you are buying or selling it is still the same transaction . Game fish for money either way. Could be a under cover operation. Lord knows they need to get down to the creeks and write some tickets . EVERY CREEK

a undercover person is not allowed to ask to buy fish! you would need to ask them if he wanted to buy the fish.

So! the undercover narcotics officer runs into a king pin ( he has been watching for months )and waits around for the king pin to ask him if he wants to buy? Wouldn't that be the same for under cover game wardens? Sorry i don't understand

fishing/fish not drugs but you asked so he you go..............
Police have to identify themselves if specifically asked whether they are law enforcement.
Example: "Are you scared that your friend or enemy is an undercover cop, just ask, they are required to tell you if they are reporting to law enforcement."1
Undercover officers aren't allowed to initiate a drug sale without pre-existing suspicion.2
Example: "An undercover cop comes up to you and asks, 'Do you want to buy some drugs?' You say, 'Yes', and they arrest you. THAT is entrapment, and will be thrown out."3
Undercover officers aren't allowed to ask for an illegal drug by name. Example: "He tells me that [undercover police] cannot ask you for drugs by name, or even common slang terms. They must call it something else, like 'fun stuff'."4

Short bald guys usually have some criminal intent.
