In The 30+ years that I have hunted and fished in Washington, I can remember (well almost)every time I have been checked By a warden.
The first time I can remember was long lake over by Spokane I had just gotten my drivers licence and took my brother and a friend of his fishing. We were fishing from the shore when I remembered I did not have a current fishing licence. This was in January and my licence had expired. I laid my rod down and watched them fish just minutes before a warden showed up to ask for licences.(this was in the mid 70s)
The next time Was coming out of the hills above wilkeson after a day of deer hunting.
It was pitch black when I got out of the woods and someone was standing in the road waving a flashlight. Turned out to be a warden, Very nice guy, checked my rifle to make sure it was unloaded and my licence and asked if I had seen any game.
I also remember that same year coming out of the woods (this was in the mid 80s) and stopping in Buckley to get something to eat and running into a warden in the store He looked upset and I found out later his partner had just been shot and killed by a hunter who was trying to unload his rifle before the warden got up to his jeep.
I got checked on the skookumchuck one year, nice guy told me about the river and the best places to fish for Steelhead.
One year in the early 90s I got checked at the barrier dam. I showed him my licence and everything was fine till I saw the name on his uniform. I don't remember his last name but his first name was George. Well George was one of the wardens who used to use the launch at my dads place (It seems some of the the locals would slash the tires on their boat trailer when they launched at Blue Creek) I had never met George before, but I recognized his name from my dad telling me they were using his launch.
Anyway I raised my arm (just to introduce myself, shake his hand, as I knew he knew my dad) I must have startled him as he threw his coat aside and put his hand on the butt of his pistol.
Everything turned out OK after I mentioned my dad and the boat launch. I found out a few years later while talking to a guy on the Elochoman That George had got thrown into the Cowlitz river by a very large man who didn't like wardens.
Anyway Don't mean to get off topic but the answer would be no. I don't get checked anymore then as I do now.
