Catching report paperwork

Captmikestarrett · 10-15-07, 04:31 PM

As a guide in MD I am required to fill out a catch report for each week. Last week I put 12 fish on the report for a total of 265 lbs.. released. Got a call early today from DNR about false reporting and the penilty's for such. I sent the photo links to them of my catches and they called back a few minutes ago and said nevermind our mistake. And then they asked where I caught them and I replied "look at my catch report" OH nevermind again.

Now that is funny..

Now they be all over "YOUR HOLE". Just aint right to have to report where you caught them, so they can go fish it. If they had the ability to catch that kinda of weight, then they wouldn't have had to questioned you. Little peckerwoods.

On the report you put the region and species which is 007 (Blue Catfish) and I guess they did not look close enough.. The region will never pinpoint the fish.

Hey another note last Saturday I witnessed a sturgeion leep. Very cool..
