Im sure this fish came up dead on the gear. Why waste it. Probably he was going to eat it himself or take it to the Pioneer House for some old timers to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteprobably right , because obviously he could not sell it, so he was not going to waste , it and have it called wanton waste
ReplyDeleteof course he could sell the fish. a licensed processor would not purchase the king but someone else might. how can you be sure that the king came up dead? you can't, and it doesn't matter anyway. it does not matter what his intent was (Pioneer Home), he got caught retaining a king salmon out of season.
