We Have Huge Issues - Smallmouth Poaching

[snap]

....great news there smallie!!!...keep us informed please!!!

[MOsmallies]

I heard back this morning from Paul Cieslewicz (Fisheries Management Biologist of the Smallmouth Tagging Study) and he said he was very grateful for the information and pictures and he had already passed it on to several agents. If anything, we have made a lot of people aware. Let's just hope they're able to follow up on this.

I apologize to the MDC for my negative opinions. Mea culpa when I am wrong I am wrong and in this case I am glad to be wrong.......

Good job guys! I'm glad there's really good people and authorities fighting for our native fish. Let's all protect our waters.

Way to go Scott, and everybody else who helped !!

I may have a longer range thought too, but I need to play with it in my head for a bit.

Scott has been a zealot for smallmouth since I met him, thanks to him and Paul for bringing this to light. There are others as well who are working hard behind the scenes to get some of these poachers caught and punished. Makes me happy!

Mdc are the wrong people to talk to. Talk to the local prosecutor. He/she can have mdc "investigate". That's something they don't normally do. The prosecutor is the proper ear to bend.

What and help feed a lawyer? The defendants defense is solid, is it not? (Heresy, a misunderstood prank, ect...ect.)
