Yeah, I thought that was just a friendly jab. No problem.
You know I did have 2 situations that come to mind. About 8 years ago I checked my traps in February on a deer lease. Killed 2 good sized hogs and had them hanging at camp as I proceeded to skin them. I was all alone. It was the middle of the day. Looked up and a game warden was sitting about 100 meters away. I think he was noting license plates. I kept skinning. Finally, he drove over and asked what I was doing. I explained and he checked my licenses and EVERYTHING. He said goodbye and drove off. I think he thought he had an out of season poacher.
About 10 years ago I was driving back on 1488 from killing a couple of hogs I had trapped. A sheriff pulled me over. Said I didn't have my seat belt on, which pissed me off cause I ALWAYS wear it. My buddy who was riding shotgun never does. The sheriff asked my why I had blood on my pants. I explained. Then he asked if I had weapons. Well, I told him I had a 357 in the Samarai on the trailer and a rifle in the back seat of the truck. He checked everything. We must have been there 30 mins. Finally he gave my buddy a ticket for no seat belt and we were off.
