Yup and how many times did they do it uncaught looks like the fish were not well respected at tje same time.

Big deal the Indians dumped 10 times more fish in the bush the same day that they couldn't sell i will guarantee.

My guess is albertan Newfies. This kind of thing is a pretty typical story for every Newfie I’ve talked too. A Newfie friend of mine was telling me his dad got caught with too many fish and I made a comment like “he was caught poaching” and he looked at me very sincerely and with an honest answer said “no, no, he just had too many fish, he had tags, just not enough”.
Im sure they had valid licences, but 26 Chinook even with the possession limit you’d need 7 people and licences on board to be within the law. And I’m thinking 7 people are not camping out even on that size of boat...

The boat was a 30ft Cutwater and was from the states. It had twin 300's on it.

That would have been an expensive trip for them.

Sad but oh so true.
Re: Salmon Fisherman Fined
No they would never dump fish!!!! Haaaahaha
Re: Salmon Fisherman Fined
Yep, who cares? Make headlines for coming down hard on a few dudes who keep too many fish and totally ignore illegal nets indiscriminately wiping out whole stocks of endangered fish....not once have I seen a headline about nets in the fraser....a friend of mine got put thorough the ringer by a fish cop for technicalities while an illegal net was a couple hundred yards up the river that they are helpless to enforce...so what is the point? Is it just to give these people jobs?
