Halibut captain lacked CFEC permit, troopers say

From the Alaska State Troopers:

Location: Juneau
Type: No CFEC permit
On 3/11/21 Alaska Wildlife Troopers were notified by NOAA Office of Law Enforcement that during a routine boarding of the F/V Evening Star during an IFQ offload of halibut, they had discovered the captain and permit holder, John Bruce, 45, of Poulsbo, Wash., had failed to obtain a 2021 Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission permit enabling him to land or possess commercially taken fish in Alaska waters. Troopers met with NOAA and Bruce in Juneau and issued him a summons for failing to obtain a CFEC permit prior to fishing.
