This officer was REALLY kind to these people. That lady was rude as heck, and I would have given her the ticket for fishing without a license.

[MsNoPixel]

“I didn’t know we’re not from here.”

Doesn’t matter if you’re from there or not, you have eyes, you can still see the posted signs.

[brandono]

I'm from California and that girls attitude annoyed the hell out of me, I've seen girls here give that kind of attitude with officers and refuse to take responsibility for what they have done.

[xoallisonox]

He is too nice, the girl had a negative attitude. They each should have been fined.

[Truthseaaker]

We couldn't read the no trespassing signs cause we are from California...officer really couldn't argue w them cause it makes sense

[regjackson]

That guy is too nice, once he was lied to he should have brought the hammer down.
Where I live Peopl fishing illegally and taking more than the limit has destroyed whole reservoirs. I am not talking about little ponds but places with over 100 miles of shoreline.
The problem is noone really believes what they do really affects a body of water and that may be true but unfortunately it is never just one!!

[BrandonMcCrackan]

Can we talk about how they have a spinning reel on a bait caster rod?

[andyw]

"I wasn't fishing" lol OK. Its always the trashy ones that lie through their teeth, even when they get caught red handed.

[bellak]

Dude when you get in trouble you do everything you can to make things right. That girl argued with everything he said and was lying about everything she was arguing.

[ryanodonnell]

I loved how he took time and got down on his knees to eye level with that little kid to explain where the fishing permit money actually goes to. Brilliant

[elizabethharttley]

He's a kind ranger. The trespassers were lame, i might have escorted them to their car cause they obviously didn't care about laws.
I hope the baby owl was able to return to it's mama.

[sr]

They seen the signs so stop trying to play dumb.

[satchels]

worked at a grocery store for many years. thieves give you attitude when they're caught. that woman is a prime example

[TwentyThree-]

I would have just ticked the woman who "technically wasn't fishing." She doesn't have to be rude.

[dazedstarfish]

Oh that owl is so cute, wana know what happened with him! Also that one officer did such a nice job, glad he gave those fishing a punishment but didnt go overboard, they saw hey its serious for a reason and wont be doing this again, hopefully...

[sammansfield]

I wouldnt have have minimised the fines. Would have put the trespassing for each of them, ticket each...the works

[RandoGringo]

"Derrr we aren't from here, we're from California" ha. Makes sense.

[chrisjohnson]

The guilty always has to smoke a cig. Should have gave him a littering ticket for the cigarette butts, too.

[bricemacaluso]

Both from California. Guess that means they're ignorant of the law. Probably can't read the no trespassing signs either

[jamedlock]

1:18 Officers should be charged with trespassing I had a private property, I would be FOR fishers, and would press charges against officers who trespassed on my property!
