The operator of a commercial fishing boat based at Morro Bay has agreed to pay $12,000 in civil penalties to settle a case over him failing to abide by fishing restrictions, according to the San Luis Obispo County District Attorney’s Office.
A stipulated civil judgment requires Leage to pay penalties totaling $12,000, as well as to accurately report the number of fish caught on board during sport fishing trips. Likewise, the judgment prohibits the crew of the Endeavor from fishing on paid customer trips during the 2024 fishing season. “The California Department of Fish and Wildlife rely upon commercial fishermen to accurately report fishing activities for the successful management of fisheries off our Central Coast,” Assistant District Attorney Eric Dobroth said in a statement. “The opportunity to take fish and wildlife resources in California requires a high degree of mutual trust between the public and law enforcement.
