Guys this is Illinois. Not Missouri. Not Kentucky. This is Illinois. And i guarantee their isn't a guide in this STATE that doesn't help their clients fill their limit and i GUARANTEE more than 75% of crappie anglers in THIS STATE help fill their boat limit. Look at Rend lake for example. Can anyone honestly tell me they (guide or individual) stops keeping their fish when they reach the 10 overs and 15 unders but clients or friends may not have their limit yet? I mean people at rend are not worried about conservation so much that I have been told by several people that for a little extra money they will "get rid of their first boat limit" and go back out for another and yet here we sit bickering about if someone catches a fish towards their boat limit. Get a life guys. End rant.

So, bowbender, you don't help catch your partners limit when you go fishing? And before you answer, you should think REALLY hard about this because more than me know the answer to that one.Quote:

Keep this in mind everyone. At the top of your forum it says "Americas Friendliest Crappie Community". Just sayin'.

At the end of the day someone decided they wanted this guys head, be it from complaints, suspicions or prior history and DNR evidently exhausted all resources to get it. Unfortunately it seems to happen to a lot of high profile outdoorsman, be it he guy that shoots all the big bucks, ducks, or catches all the fish eventually they find themselves under investigation, sometimes it's justified and sometimes its from a jealous neighbor and rumors. Better off to just do your thing and leave it off social media, if you fall on their radar they will eventually nail you for something. I've been checked many times with limits of fish and never been asked "how can you distinguish your fish from his" or even "how many did each of you catch". But they wanted him for whatever reason and threw the book at him anyway possible.
I think most of us are just trying to figure out why the tickets were issued so we can avoid getting stung for doing it wrong......do you have any insight as to why the tickets were issued?Quote:
