A gamie approached us one time and indicated that we needed saltwater licenses where we were fishing. I told her that in the area where we were, the rules defined the area as freshwater. She wanted to write a ticket. Her supervisor/partner then came by and pulled out the regs pamphlet and checked, and agreed with me, and both of them left. The lessons to be learned:

1. The gamies do not themselves know the rules all the time, especially if they are covering an area that is not their normal territory

2. Always carry the regs with you, even if you just keep them in the glove compartment of your car. You can refer to it to defend yourself, in case the gamies are making a mistake and they do not happen to be carrying their own copy of the regs.
