sealark (1/13/2010)I can't beleive that's true because they have to see you stopped and fishing in Alabama or tied up to propertyto enforce there fishing regulations. Just like Florida must do. Noone owns the water.:doh


No, it's a possession law. They can stop you for shits and giggles and if you have fish and you're in Alabama, you better have an Alabama license. Same in Florida.



They don't own the water just enforce the laws that govern them. A state trooper doesn't own the highway, but he'll bust your ass for breaking the law.



It's just their job.
