Have You Ever Been Tempted To...

hunt or fish as a resident of more than one state? Of course you have. But if you're like me, you wouldn't dream of actually doing it.

One Idaho man did, and the consequences were steep enough to deter me (if I had even entertained such a devious thought).

Roger Woodworth, 64, of Hayden, ID found a way to obtain a Montana hunting license. Then he found a way to win the lottery for a controlled bighorn sheep hunt. Then he shot a trophy bighorn ram. Then he got caught.

Was it worth it? $13,000 in fines and restitution. Hunting, fishing, and trapping privileges lost for life.

Nope, not worth it. I'd rather be fishing.

Here is the KHQ (Spokane - N. Idaho) write-up.
