It's better to cooperate with them and not be rude. You do have your rights and it's good to know those. Most of the time they will ask if they can look, this guys sounds like he was looking for something or someone.

I've only gone out once without my license, I didn't realize it until after I got bait and was two miles out.....I turned the boat around, went to LB Sportfishing and picked up a one day license for less than I paid for bait. I lost about and hour of fishing time and wasn't boarded on other water or at the boat launch but even if I was, my ducks were back in order so I wasn't worried.

Nothing we can do. I see Beverly hils code enforcement do it all the time. They target the gardeners for their bus license all the time because it is the easiest to fill their quota next time I'll just put one of my kids poop diaper on my front hatch for them lol maybe I'll booby trap and I'll tell them I wouldn't open that front hatch unless you want to be touching some poops and when he opens it I will tell them I tried to warn you

Welcome to the united states, where common sense and civil rights are now just an afterthought. If your boarded by coast guard and inspected(for having the correct safety gear) with sucessful results you will get a sticker and/or paper stating such thus no more boardings for a year?. Unless u are suspected of any wrong doing or such. I admire the USCC they are great people doing a difficult job..
