I was fined in Maine 30 years ago for fishing with out a license and I wasn't fishing, I was watching. Standing around on last ice watching , feet soaked in work boots my bud said" let's go it;s dead here" . I picked up one freakin tilt to help and there stood a game warden. He was watching the whole time. Asked if when I pulled the trap there'd been a big trout on it what would I have done? I asked it was a trick question. 50 bucks. Maine owes me 50 bucks..

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
