I am guilty of picking up what look to be lost and deteriorated crab pots out of shallow waters and place them high and dry in tree forks. I think it is called doing the right thing.

Also good to see the culprits get charged and fined as they deserve.

unfortunately doing the right thing just gets you into trouble if you get caught.

I have said it before and will say it again. Crab Pots "WITHOUT" identification tags should be classed as "LITTER". this way anyone can get rid of them without breaking any laws.
