re: Any weird experiences with game wardens?

Was coming into Venice from offshore and had one stop me right at the entrance to red pass. Pretty much forced me to stop (came at me head on) at the absolute shallowest part that’s maybe 1.5ft deep. Not normally a problem coming in on step but when you stop in a 35ft boat you need a litttttle more depth than that lol. Luckily was able to trim up and putt Around til it got a little deeper after they checked boat.

Thing that throws me off is pretty much everyone around there knows that it’s shallow there, I’d assume especially green jeans. Then he was a prick about the whole situation. He had a younger guy with him that was cool and pretty much gave off the “sorry he is being a dick vibe” but the whole thing rubbed me the wrong way. Plenty of better places to pull someone over than right at the entrance of a shallow pass.

Wish they would focus more on the thousands of “duck hunters” that flood the area with their pimped out gator tails, 1000000 lumen LED bars/accent lights and a death wish.

Other than that I have no issues with them
