Recent convictions and fines for BC Lodge Poachers

[thorne]

Was down on the North Sask last Friday doing some early spring walleye fishing and was approached by an officer. He did his due diligence and checked everything and then we chatted for about 30 minutes about stuff, and he said it's very rare for him to do the route that he was on at the time and not hand out Fines. He of course also shared his card and asked tgat we keep an eye out and give him a call if we see anything. Let's face it as we all know Alberta has the most fishing pressure per water body then anywhere else in Canada...and that's A LOT more...so let's keep our eyes open and our phones handy...them more pressure we put on the baddies.....the less likely they re to keep doing what they do...and if they "Don't speak English" just mention that an enforcement officer is on the way...that will absolutely confirm the fact or not. It's just like the out of control theft in most of Albert's urban and lots of rural areas....if ya just bitch, the baddies don't care...if ya start speaking up...they start to get the point...
