Staying this side of the law

By George Hollenbeck

It’s always better to meet the game warden in a friendly setting. A large crowd greeted Game Warden Dustin Shoemaker at the June meeting of the Lake Livingston Fishing Club, also known as the Happy Hookers.

Warden Shoemaker covered the waterfront – water safety, fishing and hunting regulations, and answered many questions from experienced boaters, anglers and hunters.

The next meeting of the fishing club is at 6:30 p.m. July 20 and will feature a representative from the Trinity River Authority. Meetings are free and open to all and take place at the First Presbyterian Church located at 910 N. Washington Ave. in Livingston.
