Perty simple....even though it may not be very popular on our end. 

If you were written a ticket....its a misd not a felony.

Your signature on the ticket is not a plead of guilt...but simply a promise to appear before the magistrate that has jurisdiction in the precinct where the act had occured.

Common to the old urban legends and wives tales. Texas Game Wardens are State Police officers that are bound by the same rules and legal regulations as all other certified Texas peace officers that hold a commission.  They do not hold a mystical power to be able to search your house without consent or a legal probable cause search warrant. Searching a vehicle is completely different but just constitutes reasonable suspicion to request a seach or a lower threshold of proving probable cause than a residence.

Take your information and circumstance to the Jp and request one of three things.  Pleed guilty and pay your fine or request a trial by judge or jury if you feel you are legally in the right. If you have a good JP or understanding jury...they may take everything under consideration. But at the end of the day....were you legally on the property or not.  Doesn't matter what code or game law its covered in.
