I can remember once being stopped by FWC (Floridas fish and Game) and the officer asked me if the oysters in a bucket were mine. The bucket was mine but there were no oysters in it. I had New Zealand Mussels in it. If I had simply answered yes then I would have given him just cause to search my vehicle without my permission. I gave it to him anyway as I did not have anything illegal but you get the picture I hope.
