Stornetta...any relation to the ranch?

It's not a link.  I'm just giving Mike a hard time for so often having a link as his post!   

That story sucked - I hope they get more than a slap on the wrist.

I'd put money on it.
They own all that property along the lower section, and since the Garica was closed most of the season this year because of low flows and the mouth rarely closes, I bet those fish were stacking up like cord wood in the lower holes.

Either way, I'd like to kick him right in the nuts

They'll barely get a slap on the wrist.  They SHOULD be charged with a felony then they would loose their right to have a firearm.  Violate that, and it's prison next time. 

Hang em high!

yeah I agree. So often the fine is a grand and some court fees. If they made the fine SUBSTANTIAL for obvious and willful acts you may see a drop and you could use the funds to hire more wardens and/or replenish stocks. Who would object to the fine being $25K vs $1K? Some of the violations are honest mistakes others are just willful act of wildlife "rape"

I'd think that federally protected species violations would be in the 20 k area

Isn't illegal marijuana in Mendocino County an oxymoron?
