Joe Oliveros......Federal Game Warden.. ... Anybody here meet him?

I thought he had died.


He worked the area around Monroe when I was coming up, never had a real issue with him, he was fair. Just have all your shite together.

One day he did be a little bit of a jerk to some friends:

Story goes like this: 3 guys, 1 short of limit in Russell Sage. Single comes in, 2 guys raise up and shoot, duck dead. All come out. Number of ducks right.

He asked, "Who wants the ticket for attempting to take over the limit" One of em took a citation....I dont know what it was for, but it happened, or it is a tall tale!! If I remember right I heard it first hand, but hell that was 20+ years ago.


Also, I heard he had a run in with a pretty powerful official over towards Franklin Parish, over a goose. Now this one is probably an unsubstantiated rumor, but if we are just telling hunting stories!

He was a P.O.S.

I hunted the Eagles Nest. In the early 80's I was driving out with a limit. Joe jumps out of a ditch and starts this which duck did you shoot first...which last. He put a thermometer up the Mallard hen's arse to make sure I didn't shoot her first.

He tried everything he could to write me up but I was legal. He continued to frick with us for years. I did not like the dudes attitude but I'll say he wasn't scared.

I'm pretty sure this is the guy that hassled some friends at the Woodlands off 15 one time. They shot a merganser in addition to the ducks and he had been watching them from a distance. Thinking he had an easy bust for taking over the limit he checked them and proceeded to get pretty mad when he realized the extra bird was a merganser and therefore wasn't illegal.

Wrote some friends of mine a ticket. From what I understand he was a supreme cock sucker.
