From the Alaska State Troopers:
Location: Nome/Norton Sound
Type: Winter crab fishery violations
Alaska Wildlife Troopers conducted a patrol of the Norton Sound king crab fishery from March 18 through March 23. Several violations were discovered which resulted in 15 pots being seized and 10 citations issued. Violations were for failure to obtain a subsistence permit, failure to mark subsistence pots, failure to properly mark commercial pots, improper commercial pot configuration and inadequate bio-escape mechanism. Citations were issued to Nome residents Caleb Weaver, Fred Tocktoo, Tony Shelp and Obie Simonis. Anyone missing pots is encouraged to contact Alaska Wildlife Troopers to determine if any of the pots seized for being unmarked belong to them.
