LE is a interesting thing most certainly when looked at in a big picture view. I was at a hearing for another issue involving fish and the judge waved the fishing rules pamphlet and wanted to know how anyone would ever figure that thing out. With WDF&W doing the thing for a two year run then emergency regs constantly one can miss things rather easily.

The other side of the coin is we once had a officer who would drag a nylon stocking across a pinched barb and if it snagged write a citation. Last year a officer checked me and did not like my pinching at all. Rather than get pissed I asked him this question. Am I required to pinch the barb or file it smooth? Pinch he said to which I asked have I not pinched my barb? He agreed I had pinched the barb but simply suggested I do it a little better next time. Looking back I can say we were both correct and sometimes keeping ones wits about them is the best way to deal with things.
