misfish Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 copied from www.ocoa.ca August 20, 2007 LOST HUNTING PRIVILEGES FOR OVER-LIMITS OF WALLEYE AND GROUSE TIMMINS - A Timmins man lost his hunting privileges for having over-limits of walleye and grouse. Robbie Gutcher, 51, of Timmins pleaded guilty to having eight walleye and 26 grouse in his freezer. This is four fish and 11 grouse over the possession limits in the Ontario Fishing Regulations and the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. Gutcher lost his hunting privileges for 10 years. Court was told that the city of Timmins Police Service located the over-limits in the freezer of the Gutcher residence and informed conservation officers of the Ministry of Natural Resources about the offences. The fish and game were donated to a charitable organization. Justice of the Peace Alex Spence heard the case in the Ontario Court of Justice, Timmins, on July 19, 2007. The Ministry of Natural Resources reminds anglers and hunters that all fish and game in their possession, including those stored in your residence, must be within limits set by Ontario legislation. To report a natural resource violation, call 1-877-TIPS-MNR (847-7667) toll free any time or contact your local ministry office during regular business hours. You can also call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). www.ocoa.ca ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, copied from www.ocoa.ca September 12, 2007 $4,000 IN FINES FOR 130 ILLEGAL LAKE SIMCOE PERCH AURORA - Two Newmarket men have been fined $4,000 for having 130 yellow perch over the legal catch limit.
