I start the day duck hunting, then finish up and go put my shot gun back in my boat. I grab my rifle for an afternoon deer hunt, and walk to my stand. Is this considered legal?

That's legal on public land. I asked an agent that very question at TW, and he said it's fine.

The cynic in me thinks he's setting me up, but there really isn't anything in the regulations that says it's illegal.

Now that could be interesting. Common sense says you don't have the gun to shoot the bird shot, but technically, you aren't supposed to be in possession of it.

By in possession of the shot I mean it’ll be in my boat. That means if I end up with a couple of ducks and a doe. They are all on my boat, I’ll have the fine shot for the ducks, and my rifle for my deer. Does the game warden have the ability to differentiate between the 2 hunts without writing me a ticket.

I was fined for having a 20 gauge birdshot shell for rabbits in my boat during a duck hunt when we all had 12s
