I'm sure it was an honest mistake.....he prob wasn't thinking.
In 4-5 decades of fishing, I can count on one hand the times I have been checked. Twice in PB, twice on bank and never in yak.

I haven't been checked in my yak (in the short time i've had it), but when i had my little 14' SeaDoo power boat, i was checked 3 trips in a row at one point. And i'm not talking about quick checks either. At least 15 minutes of them asking to see 'this' and 'that'

When I got checked by a GW out on Grapevine, all she asked was for me to hold my license in my hand & she pulled out her binoculars & checked it that way. I was wearing PFD, but didn't have a whistle & she didn't ask either. Just checked my fishing license & that was it. I had the same experience last year on GV (actually Denton Creek), probably the same GW. She did ask me how long I was planning on being on the water. I assume that was because it was about an hour or so before sunset and I didn't have a 360 light on my yak at the time.
This might be the weirdest, most pointless post ever.  I am not against golf, since I cannot but suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering fishing

I have been checked once in my yak. I was fishing San Luis Pass and beached to stretch and cast net some more bait. As soon as I beached, the GW drove over. I was wearing my PFD, all the GW asked for was for me to open my cooler, which was empty. I think they were checking everyone that was surf fishing.

Was this a Texas Warden or Oklahoma?
If it was the Texas Warden he has a kayak that he patrols in back in the creeks. Not unusual at all for them to make a connection between crafts. He probably just didn't see the rod there.
If it was the TX Warden, he's a really good guy who I have known for many years.
