i dont think someones race has to do with it. Fish bite, fish dont bite thats all there is to it.i wonder what would be said if they werent mexicans?? what if they were white black chineese what does it matter what color they are.im not trying to be rude. im hispanic myself an i find it offensive. an im sure you wouldnt like if it were your race bein talked about. Also texas was once mexico an happens to be the majority race in texas.yall are right GWs though everyone should be treated equaly no matter the situation. Youre right! It doesnt have anything to do with ones race, its ALL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS! Whether they be black, white, asian, hispanic, or whatever, they all get away with whatever they want to because it is so much of a hassle for law enforcement to be able to do their job the way it needs to be done. Its [censored] and our laws need to be changed so they can do their jobs better. I could care less if you get offended or not, its no different if it was a bunch of white canadians coming over here doing the same things. It doesnt offend me or anyone else when they are talked about. Im an American and Ill say what I want about ANY Illegal screwing up our resources or taking away our jobs. Deal With It!

I'm all about everyone having a good day fishing but all of this bs with the game wardens has to stop! I have been stopped countless times on braunig while illegals just pass on by with no tx#ers or lifejackets in the boat.Why is it I get a full inspection on my boat and these other #?*!ers get away with it? Arent we the ones who pay their salaries with our fishing tax dollars? I dont give a (beep) about being politically correct especially since all the bs going on at falcon and amistad with mexicans robbing americans.If you cant pay for a license take ur [censored] back where u came from WE WONT MISS YOU!!!

I wonder what would happen if a person who was being inspected by a Game Warden called in to report an illegal activity ie boats over their weight limit, no life jackets, no tag etc...Wouldn't the game warden have to investigate?

Or after being investigated tell the Game Warden "I want to report a Crime." I am fixing to start fishing Braunig on a regular basis. the game wardens are more than welcomed to check me..I have nothing to hide BUT when/if he pulls up the first thing I am going to say is I want to report an alleged crime. Be interesting to hear the response.

I'm hispanic myself, but it's people Like that that are the reason we get looked at wrong all the time. I fish in a yak. So i wouldn't be surprised if a boat with white guys looked at me like I can't afford a boat because I'm Hispanic. But I follow all rules and regulations to the teeth. I would react the same if it were white guys throwing the castnet out like that. It couldve been black, Chinese, Japanese, Hawaiian etc, it's still wrong. All in all, I shouldve reported them on my way out. Theose poachers just sat at the truck eating sandwhiches and laughing. Anywho, I live 20 min from braunig and have been there 3 times the past 3 weekends and caught nothing. Are Fish hitting Shad strong rite now still?

It's not a race thing. I've seen white guys poach, asians keeping undersized fish, mexicans spear-fishing and cast-netting, black folks ignoring the limit. All colors shapes and sizes (and even women) are capable of breaking the laws. They should all be prosecuted and GWs should enforce all the laws fairly. Nothing less than that.
If GW doesn't want to write a ticket because the illegal can't pay, then go ahead and confiscate the equipment. I bet that's a much better deterrent than a ticket!
If you thought healthcare was expensive, ... wait until it's free

I'm white and follow the rules without question, but i don't mind a man doing what he needs to do to put food on the table.
At our business we have a pond that we let people fish from. Sometimes they keep illegal fish but they never take more than they need. Who am i to tell a man he can't keep what he caught (whatever the means) and feed his family.
Fat is not a handicap, its your punishment for lack of self control.

I really doubt it is just to feed the family in most cases. Hell the equipment cost more than groceries. So if I see a guy rob you, just to feed his family, I shouldn't worry about it right?

Bottom line its is a law and regardless if they are white, black, asian hispanic, legal or illegal, if they are keeping to many or undersized fish they are breaking the law.

Ive seen all of the above happen myself, not much we can do about it IMO. I figure in the within the next 20 years they will be engineering our roads and bridges and take the rest of the jobs we have left too! You better take a closer look. They arready are my friend!!!!!

Then keep blinders on and stay happy. There work in our hospitals, housing authority, city workers,Highways and all the major building going on in this state. You'll have a hard time finding any americans working at those jobs and if you do they are out #ed by 50 to 1 easily
