It seems like I attract the bad GW's but last friday I was on Bedias Creek fishin and was checked by a friendly and polie GW. I always try to be friendly and respectful to all GW's but I was rude to one last year. He ask for my license and I was a little too slow in finding it in my wallet and he didn't like this. I did find the license and handed it to the GW but I had not unfolded it all the way. He leaned over and dropped the license in my boat and told me to pick it up and unfold it and give it back to him. I told him if I pick it up it will go back in my wallet. He then wanted to measure all my fish so I handed him my Golden Rule . He told me to put it away that I had compromised it and he would use his Golden Rule. Needless to say that upset me. He then started to empty my livewell by throwing the fish on the floor of my boat. I told him lets put the fish in a milk crate I had and he said he was doing it his way and for me to step back before we had a problem. I told him we would have a problem if he didn't put the fish back in the livewell when he was finished. In the meen time I had waved to a couple of friends to come over and they watched what was going on and this upset the GW. He did put the fish back in my livewell. This is the same GW that will write you a ticket if you don't have a life jacket out and accessible. Overall I have met some really nice GW's and I know they have a job to do. I also talked to some retired GW's at a fishing show and they told me the biggest complaint is the young GW's need to chill out some.

We were anchored and crappie fishing years ago at Oak Creek. We watched 2 GW's in one boat check a pontoon full of young folks and it took a long time, guess they were writing tickets. After they cut them lose, The GW's were coming our way. I was watching and noticed a guy on the 'toon "moon" them, humm... A GW saw it too! They made a U-turn lights flashing and went around a corner, so I don't know what happened.
All my encounters have been good.
