A FISHERMAN has been fined $10,000 and had his boat and trailer, valued at $7000, forfeited after being caught with a large number of undersized mud crabs that had been trapped in the Caboolture River.

After that bloke in Hervey Bay earlier this year, this is the 2nd pro to be busted big time this year. Who do they sell these crabs to?

Bravo QBFP! And a thumbs up to the Magistrate for throwing the book at the offender. Newspapers should name and shame these scumbags. Unfortunately, there is a ready market for undersized and female crabs with seafood restaurants the major culprits. QBFP need all the help they can get so keep your eyes open for these brazen offenders.
