Imagine being the green cop who made the bust, sitting in the courtroom when the penalty was announced.
I'd be tempted to throw something at the judge, like my badge.

This site with 8,984 members and 649 active users would be a start however only a few give a care.
If JohnR didn't have higher priorities he would make a great leader to address these problems because people listen to him and react.

We need to get more judges hooked on fishing ... although the courts are not likely to take these matters more seriously ... too much trouble flooding the courts for them to care about this issue despite it having further reaching ramifications than they realize from an economic, livelihood and political standpoint ... there were some charter captains in the Florida Keys that got caught with lobsters during the off season, their cars and boats were confiscated and some of them went to jail with hefty fines ... but it's also because the lobster industry in Florida has very serious connections politically and economically - at least that state realizes the significance.

fIN ,

That,s is one of the biggest problems / the judges ^ the legal system for the most part /just don,t get it ;
If the majority of high court officals were serious fisherman & were in tune to what is going on .It would have a much different result .

Some of the courts mix F & W violations on the same docket as criminal . & civil .
Soo went they are dealing with rape, car theif, eviction, etc & a case comes up with someone fishing without a license or better yet digging shellfish in pollutated water , if they don,t have a commercial license &&& in some cases even if they do ..
many officals truly feel WTF .. in the scope of what they see in a day ....... slap on the wrist ,, nickel & dime violations to them

Now if we had officials like the real Senator Chaffee I bet we would have seen real changes years ago

Every month I check the F&W arrests & enforcement violations ......... many show the offense & the penality they were given ...........trully a joke ><>

ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!

That's disgusting.
Maryland (and all the other states) need to get serious about enforcement.

These Tilghman Island guys probably trace back to the 1600's. There ancestors were illegal according to the natives. Maybe immigration reform will help get those families booted after 400 years. They were only poaching in the 20,000lb range. English scum.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.
