Rig a pole holder for my son's car seat? How do I then convince the game warden that he is infact fishing?
If I could do the latter then I could keep one or two more fish a year...

Sorry, if he is fishing without a license his catch comes out of your limit!
When did that become law. a youth isn't required to have a liscensce. so what if a 12 year old, a 10 year old, and a 7 year old all without licenses head up to the local fishing hole without an adult. and start catching fish. because none of them are required to buy a license.......
for a child to be able to retain their own limit they must be capable of providing some assistance in catching it, for instance if you go razor clamming and your child can walk, and point out the shows you may dig the clam for them and it is theirs, as a rule most officers will question the abilities of anyone under 5 yrs old with rod fishing, but if you can demonstrate that the child actually can cast and reel in with some proficiency, you may assist them in playing and landing the fish,, HOWEVER... I would avoid the gray area, and let them come of age.. I had a very stout fight with a trooper over the clam thing.. and won, but It made me look like a poacher anyway.
