Togiak man accused of setnetting without permit

From the Alaska State Troopers:

Location: Togiak
Type: Commercial fishing violations

On 8/3/21 Dillingham Alaska Wildlife Troopers opened an investigation into the sale of commercially caught salmon by individuals who had not been issued Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission commercial fishing permits. The investigation showed Anthony Forbes, 25, of Togiak, commercial fished a salmon set gillnet in the Togiak District on 8/3/21 and 8/4/21 when he did not possess a CFEC commercial fishing permit issued to him. Forbes then used a CFEC permit issued to another individual to sell the salmon he caught to a commercial fish processor in Togiak. Forbes was issued citations for commercial fishing without a permit and supplying false information on fish tickets.
