Moving here from Alaska there is not much comparison in Great lakes fishing to fishing Alaska but one thing remains the same; illegal fishing and poaching. The big difference is the penalties for it. The one thing everyone understands is money and jail time. In Alaska you can loose your boat, your car or truck or RV and all of your hunting and fishing gear. The saying in Alaska is you can get more time for poaching a moose than killing a person is pretty close to true. What happens here? Get a $100 fine for snagging fish? Make it $5000 a fish and it will pretty much stop a lot of the crap that goes on.

Does anyone know if salmon and steelhead caught on the New York side of the Niagara river can be taken back to Ontario? I have asked customs and the ones I spoke to did not even seem to know.
