TasDom Posted June 20, 2016 Author Share Posted June 20, 2016 A little extreme. For sure and even more so if you're a sushi lover... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woofers and Tweeters Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 A little extreme. Here, the game warden will just steal the boat and fishing equipment if one is found illegally fishing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rivervalleymgb Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) A related story....I was in court in Hope waiting on one of my cases to come up in municipal court. During the wait, a man had been charged with "telephoning" fish in the Red River. After the testimony, the man was convicted and fined $1500, confiscated his truck, trailer, boat, and motor. The hard thing on the guilty party was that the boat and trailer belonged to another man, and the motor, another. He had borrowed those items from, I assume, former friends. I would have hated to have been in his shoes! Edited June 21, 2016 by Rivervalleymgb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woofers and Tweeters Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Never heard it called telephoning fish, but that might be because I do my fishing at Kroger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivervalleymgb Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Telephoning fish is when you use the generator of an old crank telephone to stun the fish, which then rise to the surface and can be grabbed by hand. The technique can also be used to cause worms to come out of the ground onto the surface so you can just pick them up for bait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckAb3 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 That pic makes me wonder if they let the fishermen off the boat before the 'penalty' was implemented or if they just blasted away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Richard Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Those Indonesians were just dynamiting (on steroids) for fish. Works even better than telephoning for fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the same thing. The article said that they got the fishermen off the boat first Now there is a squabble about one of them might have gotten hurt while receiving 'help' getting off the fishing boat.

A small Lincoln gas welder is much more effective than the old telephone method, but you didn't hear that from me. That pic makes me wonder if they let the fishermen off the boat before the 'penalty' was implemented or if they just blasted away. That would be the case if it would have occurred approx. 3500 mi. N.E. of Kuala Langsa, in N. Korea. Edited June 21, 2016 by Gilbert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
