Bad behaviour - tournament fishing
 

An Ontario and NB story.

hmmm seems like a legit scumbag...we panicked..ya right...ya got caught.

now lets see what wild tv does with his so called episodes....

Money and wildlife resources, never a good mix.

Even finding them tossed in the bushes. Like he had too many to get rid of.

In the 90's I lived in the Fort Worth area and fished a lake west of there with a slot limit. I caught a couple in the slot and let them go. As we returned to the boat ramp a guy went running into the bushes as a vehicle drove up. My wife went to get the vehicle and trailer when a F&W officer approached us in my boat. Did you catch any? Yes I caught a 19 and a 21". Do you have them? Of course not, they are in the slot. Would you like a 21? Sure but that's illegal. Give me your license and I'll write this up on my card. I loaded the boat and he came over with my license, a note authorizing me to have the fish and the fish. He then handed me a nice 21" bass. I said, that looks just like the one I released. He laughed and said, yes but this is a $300 fish. It sure tasted good that night.
