Kevin Sexton being in possession of more than 2 pots, fined $2500 plus $180 in costs.
All the above cases and perps were reported on the front page of the Coastal Times newspaper this week together with a big story about how Fisheries are going to burn your arse if you come down to Mandurah and take more crabs than allowed or under size crabs.
A highly visual display to those who seek to plunder our fisheries which we are custodians of for our kids, grand kids and future fishers.
Well done again fisheries.

Unbelievable
After all the publicity and warnings these low life's are still keen. Still, I love too see them get caught! Keep up the good work I'm sure we'll see more!!!!

Lets hope they didnt take any shortcuts to catch any of these people as I dont have alot of faith in their enforcement skills anymore...
Give a man a mask, and he'll show you his true face...
The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.
Everyone's just winging it.

Hopefully they catch a few
Hopefully they catch a few more of the pricks! Tipped a few buckets of crabs out last season. When they start swinging scoop nets at you is priceless
