Thank you for contacting Just Answer.

Please give me more details.

Meanwhile, yes, it does seem like a weird and possibly criminal action, even for a game warden.

Please let me know how I can best be of service to you and what your goal is in asking your question.

FYI, I'm going to be offline until this evening or tomorrow morning. Thanks in advance for your anticipated patience.

I'm sorry, but I don't get the picture.

You want the written law on what game wardens can and can't do? Is that what you want?

I don't think there are any laws on drugged fish.
