I’ve never seen anyone other than a small kid wearing those. If I ever saw an adult I’d definitely have to say something.

This one has it all.... red plaid and faux fur... it’s a hipsters dream...

goes well with the fake dirt jeans too, lol

I actually had some young girl check my ducks on New Year’s Day once. It was almost 10 degrees and she was absolutely freezing. I could tell she had no idea what she was looking at so I identified them for her. To her credit she was able to pick out the mallard hen.

Some conservation officers/game wardens are good but some are useless. Most can’t tell the damn difference between a widgeon and a pintail. They spend most of their time here chasing the pumpkin suits and running down dirt bikes for tearing up the Wmas. Which is totally fine with me. They actually do a pretty good job of tracking down idiots that dump construction waste in the woods too.
Occasionally they deal with some clown that shot his buddy with birdshot pheasant hunting and checking for trout stamps on stocked streams.
Overall knowing the actual regulations is less important than looking like a special forces park ranger.

I’ve dealt with several of them over the years, and here at least they are far more law enforcement officers than they are “biologists” or “naturalist” or whatever.... not sure how it is in other states...

I’ve been checked for proper license etc. coming out of public ground/water ... and have not had a bad experience with any of them...

I really don’t mind seeing them around to be honest.... keeps the knuckleheads off somewhere else...

Nah I don’t mind them either. They do keep the dirtbags in check.
I know quite a few of them and they know my truck so they don’t bother me. Years ago one got canned because he was messing with a guys beaver traps. The guy caught him with a trail cam believe it or not. Some of them walk the fine line of animal rights ninja. It’s like most law enforcement though they deal with the same 15% of idiots over and over while everyone foots the bill.

Yeah. . I'm not dissing the agents at all. . most of them are good.
But some of the rules are hard to live by.

like. . I have no idea how this snake got into this predicament this morning. Poor thing. I would've chosen something a bit sharper and faster if I had been the snake. But perhaps that's all it could find laying around.

I most definitely am. Some of them anyway.

Do you have a snake wrangling permit??

I don’t think I could do that I usually get em nice and comfy, then a seam let’s loose, so I stitch and patch a bit.... till i finally have to put em down like an old dog... it gets pretty emotional

I’ve got an old pair of denim carhart bibs right now that are just in that sweet spot ... faded just right, an assorted color of paint splatter, a couple real ugly tractor grease stains, a few rips, ragged cuffs.... and they go real well with this disgusting hat that I’ve had for 20+ years

if I wear the hat and britches to town folks think I’m a degenerate and either let me alone completely or give me spare change and prayers
