Pitting These Cops (Fishing Related)

Here’s the story.

It’s bad enough when you have all the assholes poaching lobsters and filling their buckets with short fish but now we have corrupt cops doing it too. They should confiscate his boat for the “investigation.” :mad:

When will the lobster-related RO ever end?!?

I wasn’t there and I don’t have all the facts, but I believe these cops acted stupidly.

You’re just saying that so you can have lobsters and beer both.

What the hell are you going to do with 17 spiny lobsters all under 3.25 inches, anyway? That’s very little lobster meat.

Thems more like crawdads, which are free and have no limit (in my local creek).

Actually under 3.25 inches is pretty puny for even a crawdad. I usually threw back the mudbugs that small.

The article didn’t explain it well - 3.25 inches is the minimum length of the carapace, not the whole lobster. There’s a picture of a guy using a gauge here. So a just-legal lobster would probably be around a foot long total.

Worst ASCII art ever.

Well that was odd. Here’s the correct link. Scroll down a bit for the picture.

When we GET OUR COUNTRY BAAAAAAACK!!

Ah, that makes sense then.
