That’s 2 officers in a small area of known poaching it’s not Rocket science
So let me tell you, 50 guys at the RR Bridge on the breaking tides last week. Pure insanity. Crossed lines, killing fish like they were stocked trout.
I was East of the bridge and hung a really good fish at dawn. 36# on my Manley scale and back in. I'm resuscitating this big girl and a "gentleman" of a differnet culture came over to me and said "give me that fish" to which I told him to shove it up his A$$. I also told him that as a Veteran I would have no problem killing him if he didn't get the &^&%$$ away from me. He understood! Absolute zoo!

No boat, back in the suds.
