Was kicked of the water by wdfw enforcmet for crossing RR tracks. Good luck

What BS. A permanent HWY side access point needs to be established and provided. A paved lot with a foot traffic overpass. Once the paved lot is full, if you park on the shoulder, its a ticket for safety reasons. The solution is not to restrict further access. The solution is to work with the people paying your salaries. That is unless, you don't like your salaries being funded by license fees? Work with us and we'll work with you. It's a pretty simple concept.

WDFW, I know its a lot to ask, but please wake up.

Hes a young guy!

Way back when there was guy in WDG who personally funded a position that looked at getting donations of money, easements, and property for access for fishing and hunting. It was called the Citizens Wildlife Heritage Program. Active in the late 70s and I don't know how much longer. Access for the license holders used to be a priority.

Does WDFW Enforcement have authority to police privately owned land? And why would tax/ license fees be used to fund private security?

They have full police powers. Trespassing is illegal.

That's right and in some cases even more so. Fed level powers above and beyond most in-state enforcement agencies. Not really to be trifled with...at all.

Wdfw are the same as state patrol, bnsf are federal marshals.

I was about to agree with you but then I did some fact checking and found that WDFW are not "same as state patrol".

And with a trespass wouldn't there have to be a complaint reported prior to WDFW responding?

Guys - Fish & Wildlife Agents from each state by and large have massive Federal level powers akin to US Marshalls, FBI, DEA, ATF agents or there abouts. They actually are designed to be that way as they work in remote and dangerous areas and regions, across state lines (poaching rings) and often either work on those other agencies behalf OR assist them hand in hand in the field. A WA State Trooper wishes he had a quarter as much power as a WDFW Field Agent.

This is why it cracks me up when I see idiot "sportsmen" flip em' crap in the field. They really don't understand with whom they are messing with.

You're so vain.

You probably think this thread is about you.

You're so vain.

Buy the railroad or quit trespassing!!!!!!!!!!

Not vain, just letting people know whats up. And no I wont stop trespassing.

Exactly why they should just do away with the prison system.

Rehabilitation of those not willing to be rehabilitated does not work.

Watch out for trains.

Shhhhhhhhhhh....

Limiting access is the new, quiet trend.

"they" don't want you fishing....

you're just a nuisance, a plebe, a necessary speck needed only for your money.

.....be thankful "they" let you fish at all.

Next time "they" grace you with their presence, lay on your belly and grovel to the man. After all, you are not worthy. You are just another stinking sport fishermen. A leech on the system. A drain on the resources of the Royal Commercials and the Nobel Tribes!

It must suck living on the river and not having access into certain spots... lol

That's why it's good to be me!
