"Davis claimed the fish were his and he was charged with unlawful possession. He pleaded guilty Tuesday in Madison County Justice Court, was fined $640 and lost his hunting and fishing privileges for a year. Schmidt was fined $135."
Well an easy bet is they both participated fully not expecting to get 'caught.' As noted above, I thought the fines were pretty darned light. There is no way you can be 32 fish 'over limit' and not know what you're about.
Good grief, there are signs all over that say closed and no fishing below the dam. I guess that they don't know how to read. I talked to a guy that fished the Beaverhead below the dam when it was closed He got a $135.00 fine. I guess that people are stupid no matter where you fish.
But to take pictures of them and show them of takes real ass holes. There are really some nice Browns in that stretch in the open areas below that dam.

Letting the air out is smart, even SOP in Montana. In Washington the person calling it in probably would have been arrested too for letting the air out.
Idiots, judge let them off light. Pisses me off, that river is phenomenal. Those kids are screwed though. Talked to some buddies in Bozeman who said the word is out on these two. They should be nervous leaving their vehicle unnattended from now on.
I realized what I did after read the story the second time. It was put out there so I just left it there.
Sometimes things get fuzzy and I don't look to close at things. That's how I make things go wrong.
Hell. I ain't perfect.
