Tall Tales - Steve Rogers - Bog

Tall Tales is a short peek into the sometimes exciting, often funny, and occasionally scary 33 year career of Washington Fish and Wildlife Police Officer Steve Rogers. From trapping beaver, raccoons, and cougars to herding elk on snowmobile to catching poachers, there were not many dull moments. Whether horse packing into the high country or running boat patrols on the Columbia River and undercover fishing patrols, there was always plenty of work to do. There was never a quiet deer or elk season in Central Washington, especially when there were antler restrictions involved. Rogers worked with a wide variety of people from fellow Washington Game Wardens and Biologists, to Forest Service Agents, and Officers with County, City, and State Agencies. He forged lasting friendships with many trappers, sportsmen, and fishermen. He also made a few enemies that had no sense of humor. There must be humor in this line of work. One final note - not a good idea to write your local Sheriff a ticket.
