Defense's case

"Live bait your Honor seems to be the reason for the ticket. So I ask__when is a worm considered to be dead bait? Just because it wiggles, does that mean it is still alive--its got a damn hook impaled from it's head and out it's arse____your Honor"

"throw the book at em" pretty harsh. Im sure you drive 60mph because its posted. If your going 61 you are asking to have the book thrown at you.Im sure you have never hooked kings out of season and have never taken pictures and posted them, eh. This went a wee bit too far, Im sure most would agree. This kid is probably traumatized and will freak on the site of a worm. "nooooo Daaaaaddy--" With a hand slap the Dad, the kid would have a lesson learned experience. I have seen much worse on the river that time of an F&W officer could write tickets.
