game department check point

[jumpin]

Hey did anyone get caught up in the check point in ryderwood?
Sunday eve. I was leaving the hills and came across at least 10 Gamies all lined up in a row, it was crazy! I have hunted in this area for over 15 years and have seen a warden once.
I felt totally violated, it was like there was another purpose. Needless to say they treated us with no respect.

Their just doing their jobs man, if they don't do their jobs people bitch and when they do their jobs people bitch, I think they should do more check points.

this must be my top 2 funniest threads ever on here.
99.9% of the time guys are complaining because there's never any game wardens, now there are game wardens and there's folks complaining.
good gravy man...
how many violations have you seen in your 15 years of hunting there? i bet none....yet there will be someone else on here bitching about guys riding quads poaching elk in non motorized areas with rifles in bow season drinking beer.
which one's it gonna be?

this is a comical thread already.

I have been chek by gamies but never been stopped at a check point. ive heard stories of gamies sometimes not being the nicest of people but i feel that with the amount of low life hunters they deal with they sometimes take on that mantality. i am just always nice and polite with them and let them look at what ever they want. they are just out there doing their job and they catch alot of flak for it. i like seeing them out there and sometimes wish i would see them more often. The other thing i was just think of too was that by the time most of the huntnig seasons have come and gone they have heard every story under the sun from people and they are just suspicious of everyone, which i think i would be too.

True points but here is the problem . You know one hunter can ruin it for all of us and i understand that but it goes both ways . Ive had some pretty crappy experiences with gamies , to the point where if they flip me any additude ill gfive it right back . Tired of getting questioned like a bank robber for nothin . Never had a fish and game violation . Im sure i will get some crap for this but i dont really care . For all of you who think im crazy and never had a problem , good for you . I hope you never do. You have to remember they are a part of our goverment , most if not all gov agencies are unproductive at best

I love check points, I think there should be more. It catches the loser riff raff trying to get away with illegal activity. I remember as a kid going thru them almost every time we went hunting in the greenwater area. I went thru the one in Lincoln county a couple of years ago and the guy in front of me got busted for shooting a huge 7x7 deer at night (they can tell by the pupils) and shot it during a rifle season on a archery tag (what a loser)

Sorry..........but there is never an excuse for being rude to the people you work for while you are doing your job.  Remember everyone is consider innocent until proven otherwise, not the other way around.

Just doing their job.  Be glad they were there, they probably caught some game violators that day.

As long as you aren't doing anything wrong you shouldn't have anything to hide. Have your gun empty,license out and ready and you should be on your way in a couple of minutes.

These gammies are here for YOU. to protect your hunting rights and to keep the bad folks from ruining your hunting opportunities. The gammies are on our side as long as you are on the straight and narrow. Think about what  they are dealing with....Everyone they come across IS armed and they must be careful while checking people, this is  no different than being pulled over by a cop, the only difference being everyone they are pulling over has a weapon.

10 GAME WARDENS IN ONE PLACE IS PUSHING IT, (CONIDERING THERE ACCTUALLY WAS 10 THERE)  I PERSONALLY THINK THAT CHECKPIONTS ARE A GOOD THING,  BUT 2 WARDENS MAX. IN ONE SPOT,  10 WARDENS COULD SET UP 5 CHECKPOINT AND COVER MORE AREA TO KEEP IDIOTS OUT OF THE FORRESTS/RIVERS          MY

It isn't always game violators they are after. Could've been a man hunt. Criminals often will hide out in the woods and travel the roads we do. Since there were as many as you say, I'm leaning to a more serious matter at stake.

The gamies are privy to things like this. Some have lost their lives in the process.

then if there was 2 wardens someone would be bitching that it took too long to get through the line at the check point because there was only 2 wardens. if you haven't broke any laws, you shouldn't have anything to be worried about. let the people do their jobs and go on your way.

TRUE....

WELL WHAT CAN I SAY.  PEOPLE LIKE TO BITCH ABOUT EVERYTHING   

I PERSONALLY DON'T CARE IF THERE IS WARDENS AROUND OR NOT,  I NEVER GOT ANY TROUBLE OR ATITUDE FROM THEM,  BUT THEN AGAIN I HAVENT HUNTED LONG ENOUGH TO RUN INTO ANY IDIOTS IN THE FOREST.
