I wonder if boaters took pictures of shore fishermen who trespass across private property, park illegally as well as keep untold amounts of under-size fish...would they arrest them?

Probably not. No one cares about fishing, not even the DMF. It's a sad state of affairs. IMO this is an unfixable problem in this state. No one will do what it takes.
FWIW: I have phoned the authorities about comm bass and charter guys taking undersized scup buy the boatload. I get an answering machine, leave a message and no one ever shows up to nab these guys. (I waited). Like I said, no one gives a %$%$%$%$.
