there is no excuse to not know the laws, and yes fines should be stiff but saying that I know there is a hell of a lot of people that violate this same law all the time ....... in Ontario your possession limit is the same as a daily limit that means no more than 4 fish at any time I think these guys missed that law and were here for a few days and thought they could take 4 fish a day X how ever many days they were here. In the states there is a daily limit but there is no possession limit once you get home I see guys all the time fish the morning take home a limit then fish the night and take home a limit and fish the next day and take home a limit this is illegal. but happens more than you would think .we wont even talk about shore lunches lol
That short article says that they were concealing the fish so they knew they were breaking the law.
and the other article did not say that per say I am not by any means condoning there bad lack of judgement they had fish in a cooler , improperly packaged for transport, and way over the legal limit they deserve to be prosecuted and they were at least they came back if they were hardened criminals they would have never come back to court lol . again there is no excuse for ignorance of the law but I will say over harvest is very common by forging and local populations .
