Rangers are custodians of our waterways and fisheries and they are conservationists at heart. Good people who do a service for our fisheries. I wouldn't be surprised if many of them are fellow fisherman who don't agree with the restrictions, but due to their positions....powerless to effect change or even express their opinions.

You are taking your frustrations out on the wrong people.

"Rangers are custodians of our waterways and fisheries and they are conservationists at heart." PL no doubt we do not to pick on good folks ... But enlighten me ... About The rangers who are custodians of our water way ... I have never run into one of them ... The only Authority I have seen in my many years are TWRA, Local Sheriff Patrols, An occasional USCG in West Tenn and KY ...

Are they Fed Park Rangers? Are they Army Rangers? Corps of Eng's ??? I am a USCG Merchant Marine Officer and I have never seen any .. To be honest I have never run into any on the Navigable waterways on TN and KY ... I am not being smart but I would really like to learn about these folks ... Who are they ... Sounds like they are our kind of people !! <'TK><
