But as I opined earlier I do believe that a smaller percentage of recreational folks fudge the numbers and that their adverse impact on overall accuracy of recreational harvests is far less than to be found with other harvesters if for no other reason than the risk/reward relationship.

When the cop is your brother, father, uncle, or cousin you are far less likely to be cited and if those same related folks are in the judicial system you are far less likely to be found guilty or suffer a harsh penalty.
