You have to stop fishing for the rest of your life.
I know you want to bait me into a legal discussion numbskull, but I just don't see this as something that is that difficult. I have to believe that F&W officers encounter these situations all the time with fresh water fishing.
If a person were on my 12 ft fishing vessel who did not have a license I would tell them they could not fish. This is what I have done in the past and I didn't find that complicated.
Certainly you can come up with hypotheticals though, give them a trial run on the water, and let he F&W officer decide who to fine.
