Summer is simply too happy for the vast majority of foodie! Catch crabs, fish, catch PiPi in this season! When I think of those delicacies, I'm going to drool!
However, while friends actively participate in the activities, be sure to remember: abide by the rules, do not know the law!
According to the Victoria State Fisheries Administration, someone recently broke the law and tried to find out who was caught!
In Melbourne's Werribee district that night, several Victoria Fisheries Agency administrators were patrolling and saw only three people gathering in the parking lot, as if they were moving something. The police were surprised to see them, but they just stopped them and wanted to ask them for a day-to-day inquiry.
Walking in, it turned out to be two men and one girl. However, as soon as they said let them report to the door, they saw a person, two words not to say, pull out of the leg run!
It's all right if you don't run, it's weird that you don't have a ghost in your heart!
And another man, apparently trying to escape with his companions, distracts the fishermen to stop them from looking further at their cars. However, these actions can be even more indicative of their hearts!
The police stepped forward and opened the car to check it out. Oh, my God! As soon as the door opened, a smell of seafood fluttered across the face! Look closely, the car except diving equipment, the rest of the space, is full of seafood occupied: eyes full of abalone, conch.
After careful examination, it was found that such a small carriage was fully loaded with the following:
423 spring flowers (one edible snail):
539 dog snails:
204 abalone:
More than that, the girl tried to hide a backpack in the nearby grass while the police were checking the car. As a result, by the eye-pointed fisheries manager found, a grab backpack, open to find that there are still 70 abalone inside!
And after repeated comparisons, a total of three of them caught 1236 shellfish! However, 195 of them were too small, and they did not reach the size permitted by the law at all! The three men ran away at the sight of the police, apparently breaking the law!
He was sentenced to five years in prison!
A fine of $79,000!
The vehicle has been confiscated!
And has been banned from fishing again for a long time!
Every year, because of illegal fishing and repentance of the original people, there are indeed a few!
Last January:
According to ABC news, a young man in Western Australia claims to have enough abalone in his car! Then, it was captured by the Fisheries Administration.
At that time, he was fishing for abalone, more than 17 times the amount allowed by local law!
Finally, he was sentenced to four years' imprisonment! A fine of $ four hundred thousand!
Last March:
According to Herald Sun, at Mornington Wharf, two groups of people were found illegally fishing and selling fish at the Mornington Wharf.
The first one is a couple; there are several bags in their cars that look very bulging! Open it and find it full of squid! There are 78! They already catch four times as many squid as the law allows!
In the end, the couple were fined nearly A $3200!
The second group, is two little brothers, when they were questioned, falsely claimed that they only caught 20 squid, is legal! A few minutes later, however, the lie did not break itself. The F.A. found 46 more in the spare tires behind their car! They not only break the law but also lie.
Last May:
According to The Advertiser, a Melbourne uncle illegally sells fish!
In seven months, the uncle continued to sell more than 100kg of King George's cod.
The state fisheries administration stipulates that only licensed commercial fishermen can sell their own fish! And this uncle is not a fisherman! He is just holding the leisure fishing card, is not allowed to sell their own seafood, with other people in exchange for seafood!
This violation, let uncle pour blood mold:
Sentenced to 12 months in prison and a fine of 33,999 Australian dollars!

This suspicious move caused the caretaker to check their cars! As expected, they caught 19 abalone in the car!
No matter how small the number is, however, 17 of them have to be small and large, which is not in line with the law! Three people are ignorant, a moment of greed is nearly 1800 dollars in exchange for a fine!
