I was at an ice fishing tournament with a bunch of buddies on Wolford lake, Co. and the local warden came by to check licenses.
I've only been approached once by a game warden while I was fishing in CO, in 22 years here. I was fly fishing at one of the Honholz Lakes. I was on the other side of the lake from the parking lot. Saw him park he truck, get out and start walking around. Took him a few minutes because it was probably a half to three quarters of a mile to where I was. Friendly guy, asked if I was catching any, which I wasn't. Asked me what fly I was using, and then suggested I change flies to one he'd had luck with that week. Then he just walked back to his truck without asking to see my license.
Maybe he ran my license plate and saw that I had a license. But I did start catching fish after I changed flies.
