Maryland Natural Resources Police officers charged two Anne Arundel County men in separate cases with illegal fishing and crabbing activities.
A Glen Burnie man faces fines of nearly $200,000 when he appears in Annapolis District Court Nov. 21 on charges he poached numerous undersized striped bass and white perch from the Patapsco River.
Sultan Mahamud Limon, 23, was charged on Aug. 31 by NRP officers on patrol at Fort Smallwood Park, which is owned by Anne Arundel County. The officers were checking recreational anglers and their catches when they saw Limon using a cast net to harvest fish.
When they checked his catch, officers counted 116 undersized white perch and 66 undersized striped bass. The minimum size for white perch is 8 inches for anglers using a cast net. An angler may possess two striped bass between 18-28 inches, or one fish between 18-28 inches and one fish over 28 inches, daily.
The officers seized the fish and returned them to the river.

"Could total $200,000"? Oh sure it will.Read the name once again slowly.
Should have returned the poacher to the river, with his net wrapped around his feet, weighted with a couple of concrete blocks.

Sounds like an illegal Muslim to me. Obama will get him off if O'Malley doesn't do it first.
what did he have, a million fish?
