jimmer Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 The administration involved in the fines and court costs was probably more than $1300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimsbylander Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Guys like that will view the 3 month licence suspension as 25% off next years licence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Think there are two set of scales for overlimit fines, one for locals who just want to fill the larder for the family and another for out of town tourists. Well maybe a third set too, but we won't discuss that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Ironmaker Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 The administration involved in the fines and court costs was probably more than $1300. Only $1300.00? I bet my bottom dollar it cost much more. And the second guy's case hasn't come to trial yet. Guys like that will view the 3 month licence suspension as 25% off next years licence. [/quote License? What license? Poachers generally don't bother with licenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmer Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 I just saw a guy was fined $2500 for taking one hen turkey out of season with a .22 calibre on private property. Karma was he got in a car accident leaving where he shot the bird and the police found the bird and his gun. I guess fish and birds aren't comparable.
