When I was young, I once fished for trout with Roe sacks and a fly rod (which was legal at the pond I was fishing) There was a C.O. fishing off duty with his Grand Children just down from me. I was nailen Nice sized trout and he was catching nothing. He asked me what I was using, and I said power bait (not wanting to share my secret) He must have then made a call, and within 20 min a C.O. showed up and came straight over to where I was fishing. He right away noticed I was using Roe sacks and said it was illegal, I argued, knowing it was legal, but that never helped. He then wrote me a ticket and took my gear...Knowing that it was legal to use roe, I talked to some higher authorities (took all afternoon on the phone) and got my gear back and my ticket was thrown out the next day...Sure wrecked my day of fishin and was pain in the ass tryin to talk to the right person to plea my case...I see and talk to The C.O several times a year, when Im out and about, but I dont think he remembers...
