Here is my greatest game warden story
We got checked at Malmaison by Dale Adams.We were sitting there having one of the best days of the year and he came hauling booty through the trees. He had a jon boat with a 30-45hp(I think). The boat sat straight up with him in the back and that big motor. He was sitting in an old rocking chair or something.He was bouncing off trees.We all said look at this fool. He has lost his mind. I stepped out and waived him away, thinking he was some idiot trying to set up near us. He ran his boat up into about a half inch of water and it stuck. He gets out and runs to us. It was about 30 degrees that morning but was now about 50. He was dressed for -20 degrees. He runs up to us, sweat pouring off of him. Leaves his boat out in the middle of our hole. We have ducks circling everywhere, and he would say " get down, go ahead take em if you can. They were trying to come in this hole until they saw this FREAKING boat out in the middle. He checked every shell we had in the boat!!! EVERY FREAKING SHELL. We had 5 people hunting with us so that was a lot of
checking.It was late in the morning, so people were leaving. Everyone that passed within 200 yds of us, he took out running after them. Tripping over underwater structure the entire way. He stopped them and checked them. This dude was about to die from a heartattack. He had run a marathon in our hole.HIS BOAT IS STILL OUT IN OUR HOLE. This ordeal started around 10 am and around 11:30(NO SHEIT) he said " I'll see yall, dont kill them all". Needless to say we didnt kill a duck after 10 am.
