Kodiak man cited on 'intent to operate' violation

From the Alaska State Troopers:

Location: Adak
Type: No intent to operate
On 12/7/10 Dutch Harbor Wildlife Troopers issued a summons to Ludger Willie Dochtermann, 68, of Kodiak, for shipping halibut from Adak to Anchorage on a fish ticket without first completing an intent to operate form and receiving written authorization from the Department of Fish and Game to operate as a catcher seller. Arraignment is scheduled for 12/29/10 in Unalaska District Court.

  2. Good for Lou, making a fresh market out of 4B fish.

    Selling fish is a tricky business, subject to state regulation just as any other business that implicates the public health. Last thing any halibut fisher wants to see is someone who doesn't meet minimum freshness standards flogging their ragged fish in town and souring the market. Lou is savvy enough to know this. So why didn't he get his state permit? Just an oversight, I am sure.

    Keep it fresh, keep it clean, keep it legal. Get your papers and keep selling fish, Lou.
