I like the idea of publishing the names and fine $$.
Public shaming would be a great punishment.
Can't say I agree with jail time for poaching fish.
1. punishment has to fit the crime (ie the debts must be equal)
2. it is insanely expensive to lock people up.
It would be great to see chain-gangs of hardcore poachers doing habitat remediation.
The crime is against the ecosystems and the commons, not so much against the government.
