I dont want to comment on the Female Warden and the events that prompted this post, but I would like to say that I do Believe there is "Unbalancd Enforcement" on our Westside rivers. I too have seen many WDFW wardens in the Green. Once I was fishing in the gorge from a kayak, and had two Wardens on kayaks zip by, pull over, and checked me out. No problems with this encounter, but I was amazed to see them working the river like that.

I Have never seen that type of enforcement on any other river, ever. Have any of you??

Furthermore, I never see Wardens on Skykomish or Snohomish....I'm 30 and have fished that river for 25 of my years. Never ever seen them on the Skagit or Sauk. Not on the Bogey or other peninsula streams either. Why does the WDFW heavily patrol some rivers and not others when fishing pressure exists on all rivers with decent fisheries? It is a STATE agency isn't it?

On another note, I personally dont mind being checked because I am always legal. I like to see the license and tax dollars I spend at work, and most of the wardens I have met are nice people that are fishermen/women themselves.
