this moring while working on the side of a place we're rebuilding right next to the harbor...this guy comes down in his car an drive's on the town peir,,no big deal.....fish are jumping every where...he pull's out his rod and starts catching...fish almost every cast...bass/ blue's mixed..I can see the eye's on these fish, thats how close we are to the dock.....the guy take's every fish he catches and throw's them in his trunk...now mind you none of these fish were more than 14"...blues fine,,take them all,,but he's keeping short bass as well...after the 5th bass[short] he throws in his trunk..I make a call...down comes the harbormaster..he tell's the guy to open the trunk...low and behold there's short bass...the HM. takes the short's and throws them in the water[dead]..they talk...the HM. then goes to look to see if any of the fish have swam off[dead fish don't swim] he then jumps done on one of the boats, grabs a rake and plucks them out of the water..hmmm! now what...the HM. takes them back to the guy and GIVES HIM THE DEAD SHORT"s...wth...this is how the enforcement folks deal with law breaker's
it's a free for all out there...catch and keep anything you want guys..the law won't do anything.
