$1,500 & 1 year suspension for 1 short pike
|
Appears he is one of the new Canadians surprised he didn't get off on a technicalty.
|
Could have bought a lot of fish for $1500.00!
|
I like that poachers are starting to be penalized more, I hope it continues and in fact even elevated. Keep em coming F&W.
|
Nice hopefully they keep an eye out this winter there for the guys poaching walleye out of the lake
|
Excellent! I hope they do some patrols out at Coal this winter and spring....lots of folks breaking the rules there. I have called numerous times.

"Deception was involved, and some previous history".
Not just $1500 for a short fish, $1500 for being a poacher. Good. Lots of discretion allowed for the officer: varies between a warning, a ticket ($135'ish) or a mandatory court date. |
Nice to see a decent fine. Lets hope he stays away from the lakes and rivers for that year long suspension.
|
All I look for is consistency not just in terms of, the next guy getting a good size fine for a short pick (obviously considering past history), butin terms of equal fine for equal crime such as a guy is caught with 30 walleye from a lake, he's staring down the barrell at $1,500 per fish.

good job Quentin

You are famous !! ........... keep up the good work .......... we all appreciate it. There just isn't enough of you guys out there.
I am happy to see guys are getting significant fines for stuff like that. Maybe the $1500 lesson will teach him. |
Good job!
Give this man a raise, a bigger gun, faster truck and some help! |
agreed give Quentin the tools to do his job,and the power to do so.
|
Just awesome!!
I can't imagine how frustrating it must be for some of these guys to work your ass off trying to catch poachers and then have the courts let a guy off with a technicality. Good to see some big dollar fines getting handed out for this crap. I would happily sign up for a fishing license at double the price if I knew the money was going to go to effective enforcement for poaching. |
good job! its not fish and widlife job to educate the public, it is your responsibility as a sportsman to read , understand and follow all regulations every year, or face the penalty if you dont. in this case it was 1500$ hopefully other people learn from his mistake
