Bentley, who was in Colorado and headlined Sunday's Seven Peaks Festival, had posted a picture on Instagram with a fish and a message directed toward Bryan boasting he had caught more fish than him.
"@lukebryan only caught one and this is my third in 30 mins," Bentley wrote, with the Instagram post garnering attention from Colarado Parks and Wildlife.
"You're next," Bentley warned Bryan jokingly before the officer writing the ticket in the Twitter video said, "Hi, Luke."
Bryan headlined Saturday's festival lineup.
The "Drunk On A Plane" singer seemed to enjoy being ticketed noting in his tweet that he appreciated being treated like a "regular person" and pledging to get a license next time.
