CLARK COUNTY – Law enforcement authorities in Clark County have completed an investigation of fishing violations at Clark State Fishing Lake in southwest Kansas.
On July 3rd Game Wardens were checking anglers at the lake and noticed a boat they had received complaints about, according to a social media report.
Game wardens made contact with two anglers on the boat and found they were using eight poles to fish.
After a thorough investigation, game wardens discovered a gross over limit of catfish hidden in the boat.
The anglers were issued numerous citations and the boat and equipment were seized by game wardens.
On Monday, the subjects plead guilty to all charges and were ordered to pay $625 in fines and $216 in court costs.
The seized boat and equipment was forfeited. The boat will be auctioned off by the Clark County Sheriff’s Office and the proceeds will be used to purchase needed equipment for the game wardens involved.
