How does one keep from getting ticketed?

[One_eyed_jack]

You can donate legally taken wildlife. It dictates in the proc how you do it and the exclusions of where you do it. The Warden was partially correct; being that you were donating the wildlife at an excluded location and would be ticketed, however he was incorrect for stating that you can not donate sport fish.

The proc should be read and retained or carried with you at all times, to avoid any problems.

(3) A person may possess or transport a legal limit of game fish or crayfish for
another person when accompanied by a donation letter. (See Section III.H.1.
DONATING.)
