Oh and BTW, CO's are cops...they go through the police acadamey and then take on the fish cop training. However I must agree with you, most of the time they are more polite than a cop is.[/quote]
CO's are biologists who go through POST training. There is no "fish cop training." (If there was, hollywood would have made a movie about it starring Steve Guttenberg).
If a CO follows you to your house, there's a pretty good chance you did something wrong.[/quote]
Maybe I mis-spoke there. A CO is a biologist. However a DWR officer/investigator is a police officer with extra training. I have only been checked twice up there at the bay this year. There are certain times of the year where they should bump up the checks (ie the spring Crappie spawn, and the fall Wipers). A camera does not deter anyone, but checks on the dike do.
