Also, who drives by an old guy with a flat tire?

Thanks for sharing a positive encounter, nice to hear for a change.

As a CO in BC many times I stopped and help with flat tires, boosted dead batteries, pulled vehicle out of mud holes or snow banks, gave people fuel. Never ever considered it a waste of my time. If as a public servant you can't lend the public a hand it's time to move on.

Thanks for all you guys do.
Ignore the few trolls on here. No doubt you deal with them to, just on another level.
Keep safe out there.

No, I kind of felt sorry for them as they obviously can’t read. I’m pretty sure the streams don’t open until June

x2....I have had many good encounters with Fish and Wildlife officers. I was ice fishing and the CO came upon us and I swear I had my fishing licence on me. I emptied my whole wallet and nothing. He called it in and gave me a break. I kept searching my wallet after he left and I found it...

The only **** head I ran into was out at Lake Newell and a young punk trying to show his power off....Found nothing and told him to **** off

Depends on the stream, some open April 1, some open year round.

Nice deflection. 😎
