No use for them, Treat people as You want to be treated, Treat me like Chit, You got it coming back at you.There thats my RANT. Sounds like you needed to have a sense of humor in this situation. They were just saying you should have had another truck because they got a complaint about a similar truck.

Being accused of doing something based on the fact Im driving a white Truck.I forgot how funny it is to have a smart a$$ comment made when a straight up question is ask. Now what is funny is this thought..(You Ready) The Lard A$$ sitting in the new truck We bought him and his little blanket spread over his legs is going to jump out of anything. Fat F$%K would fall and break a hip.Now thats funny.Sorry see no humor in him and his smart mouth.

I find it interesting that some individuals report hunting for decades and never having a single negative experience, while others report consistently having problems.Do those of you that have these consistent problems report the incidents so WDFW can address them?http://wdfw.wa.gov/enforcement/surveys/feedback.html
I understand the routine checks that Fish and Wildlife do, but I do not see why once they've checked your tags, gun, ammo/arrow weight, license plate and see that your not doing anything wrong that they continue to search/prod you for information that could lead to you doing something wrong. A couple friends of mine wasduck hunting near vantage this year and was done hunting for the morning ( boat and guns back at the trailer/ campground. Birds cleaned and in the cooler) and went into vantage for some fuel. A WDFW officer was parked at the gas station and when they pulled in the officer came up to their rig and asked if they hunted today. They replied that they hunted the moring and had shot a few birds and they were just running into town for some fuel/snacks. The officer asked to see their birds that they shot that morning and they said they were back at camp. The officer then followed them to the campground and when they pulled out a ziploc full of duck breasts the officer got all excited. He then counted the breasts and then stated that he could give them a $4500 ticket for unlawful possesion of game($500/bird). He then stated that he could not tell whether the birds were lawful game since there was no carcass on them. So my buddy then said he would bring the officer to where they cleaned the birds and my friend produced the carcasses of 9 LAWFUL ducks so then the officer searched the camper/boat/vehicle and asked for boaters registration cards and my friend doesn't have his. The officer said he would be watching for them to be on the water the next day and would tag them if so. They packed up and went home. Good thing I didn't go that weekend. I probably would have lost it. This kind of stuff is why some poeple have a bad taste with the WDFW in their mouth.
Some of you can understand the routine checks and I do not judge you however I adamantly do not agree. I for one do not understand the routine checks as we do not live in a Police State. Leave me alone unless you have cause to believe I have done something that warrants an approach and/or questioning.
There is a monthly fishing newspaper The Reel News. It is OFFICERS NOTEBOOK by Mike Cenci. There are usually 2 pages of officers encounters in the field. Every cheater, liar and thief...lies to them. Other times the person they just checked is an armed convicted felon. Other times its drug users or idiots running over dozens of birds on the beach. Foot chases, wresting matches, assaulted and attempted murder all in a days job. Add to that the man you are approaching has a high powered rifle, shotgun or hidden weapon. I would be very cautious. My manners would take second place to my safety.http://www.thereelnews.com/

Why shouldn't an officer look into it further?"It is unlawful to possess in the field or transport game birds unless a feathered head is left attached to each carcass, except falconry-caught birds."
