DonAndersen Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Found in the Rocky Mountaineer Tuesday Sept. 27 edition. $3,000 beats the old record as far as I can see by $500. Don Quote

SteveM Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Y'know the worst thing for this dummy? Now, everyone knows that his middle name is "BEVERLY"!!! BWAA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!!!!! Quote
darrinhurst Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 That and he's $3000 lighter in the wallet.... Quote
dutchie Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 thanks don for posting that , good one , hope this wakes the judges all up in the province and they now start giving bigger fines all the time Quote
dube Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 The Blackstone has a special place in my heart, I'm glad this guy got caught. It is one of the most beautiful rivers I know of and I think because it is a bit of a haul to get in there people figure they are all alone. I know for a fact I have been watched by a CO on more than one occasion from far up on the bank. The fine is dandy but a one year suspension doesn't quite cut it if you ask me. Thanks for posting Don. Quote
shredneck Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Awesome! This should be made VERY public as a type of warning to potential poachers. Quote
Toirtis Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Fantastic...I would love to see news like this more often....far too many poachers seem completely unworried about getting caught or fines that might actually hurt. In situations like this, I think $2500 should be an absolute minimal fine. Quote
Guest 420FLYFISHIN Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 another small victory in the war for trout! great job who ever call this guy in Quote
DonAndersen Posted October 13, 2011 Author Posted October 13, 2011 420FLYFISHIN, The illegal actions were reported by another angler. Report a Poacher works!!! Don Quote
