I don't like big gubbamint telling anyone what to do, but lack of enforcement probably plays a roll in any over-harvesting that maybe occurring. I've personally been very surprised how few encounters I've had here in AL with Mr. Green Jeans. Seems like I couldn't get a line wet in Texas without running into them.
I got a ticket for a couple of 1/2 inch undersized speckled trout in Texas City by a couple of undercovers that had been watching me for hours with binoculars. They rolled up in a black 4x4 unmarked with do rags and plain clothes. I thought they were there to ask if I had extra bait to give up. $265 ticket and took my fish. Still not over it.

Now that’s bullchit.


It be's that way sometimes.
