I better correct this before it gets out of hand.

Dan S,

About body marks, I kind of added that and expanded on it. He said "snagging body" is illegal but he did not say about no marks on the body. I am going to edit the post and take my commentary off. Sorry about that. Thanks.

You brought up a good point which I did not discuss with him and I may give him another call with this question: If you fair catch a fish with fresh? snagged mark on the body in fresh water, is it legal to keep to that fish? Now that becomes a bit technical!

Lead Thrower,

He did not discuss if an officer is watching you and disagrees with you what is going to happen. I assumed if an officer is watching you and disagrees with you then it will be like any other legal battle. Unfortunately no law is black and white.
