News Report: Epic Crab Poaching

This is just off the scale poaching...

What was the fine for each crab, again?

Looks as if its not taken all that seriously......

"Vang was cited for a misdemeanor"

thats why hell do it again and again...

Just a misdemeanor. He'll be back at it next month.

Lets hope he catches hundreds if not thousands of crabs

Yea, the penalty should have been worse. There should have been jail time added..

Should have given him the max with that many crabs; each one over the limit is $500.00 I think!

It looks like he was cited, which means he will need to appear in court. I do not think he is in the clear. Let's hope DFG helps to hang him high during his court appearance.

Cited for a misdemeanor, but the DA can charge him different if the circumstances warrant...

To whom do we send the letter to tell them to hang this guy?
If it's this out of hand some serious messages need to be sent to deter this flagrant behavior.
And I'm not talking about nailing a guy who has a legal limit with one crab 1/16th of an inch short where you can see where the end of the crab got chipped in transport somehow.
Guys like this who do it to this extreme should have very large fines and need to do some hard jail time...PERIOD!
