Imagine going into First District Court with all the drug dealers, prostitutes, murderers, drunk drivers and the like and you're there for illegal fishing.

DEC is just doing their job.

DEC is just doing their job.

.....and a good job it is.

 

[OVERBORED]

All things considered, yes, they do a good job.

They have been checking at many locations recently.
Make sure you follow the rules.
It seems many people aren't.

Saw DEC out this weekend checking boats off Rye. They’re were plenty of 15” fatties this weekend. I’m sure the temptation got some guys. We don’t play that game on our boat. They all go back.

We were checked Friday evening about 10:30 PM.
No fish on board. Officer was polite and professional.

Good to see them checking all the boats and fisherman.

Reminds me of Alice's Restaurant:

He said, "What were you arrested for, kid?" And I said. "Littering." And they all moved away from me on the bench there,...

I was surprised that K9's are trained to find fish.

Indeed. But they'd look pretty silly bringing in the fe-lines instead of K-9s. Probably get better results tho.
