Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Checking the California Dept of Fish and Wildlife website, it looks like anyone 16 or older must have a license to fish. I did not see a reference to ages younger than 16. In the sane world, a 13 year old should be able to fish by him or herself. California, however, has some very bizarre views on what people should be allowed to do. So, I'd recommend contacting them directly.

Department policies dictate when a report will be filed by a police officer.
Generally: The same incident will generate only one report. Multiple incidents of the same nature, by the same subject may generate more than one report depending on the circumstances.
I don't know. I'd suggest contacting your local sheriff and asking him or her.
In what context? If an officer is taking enforcement action, then at a reasonable time he or she should identify him- or herself in a reasonable manner. That will likely include a badge and ID card.
If someone knocks on your door and asks to speak with you it is certainly reasonable to request to see identification. Call the local law enforcement agency and confirm the officer's identity if you have any doubts.
Asking an officer to show you his or her badge in the middle of a fight, chase or in the middle of some other dangerous situation might not be feasible. It is all situationally dependent. Unfortunately, everone looks for a simple black and white answer, but life's not that easy. Reasonableness is the key to everything.

I saw no evidence that indicated George Zimmerman committed any crime, and yes, the jury's duty was to acquit.
Frankly, it is my belief that this was a case of wrongful prosecution for political gains, and testimony from at least one employee within the State Attorney's office stating the prosecution was withholding evidence from the defense team certainly affirms that belief.
Generally, you cannot/will not be prosecuted if you once possessed/used a drug. So, I personally would not worry about talking to the police about having ordered it in the past.
Is this a company that is public about their sales (i.e. they advertise in High Times, etc)? If so, I doubt you need to tell any law enforcement agency about it. I think most High Times subscriptions go to police stations and drug units.
If the company is located in another state or country where the substance is legal don't expect that law enforcement can do much about it.
If you really want to stay anonymous, call one of the "tip lines" for the DEA, FBI or local police department.
Just from my own observations, the synthetic stuff is far worse than the natural stuff. It is more akin to a crazy mix of meth and PCP than MJ.
I'm not sure what you mean by "rural area of the city." If you mean out in the country somewhere, how far would you expect to drive to find a lit area? Don't expect a trooper to follow you for miles just to look for a well lit area.
If you are in a city, you should probably pull into a parking lot/gas station whenever available to begin with.
You can ask an officer anything, but he/she doesn't have to agree to honor your request.
