HURON COUNTY, MI \u2013 Department of Natural Resources<\/a> received a tip on its Report All Poaching Hotline advising that a man was at his residence in possession of a few hundred perch.<\/p>\n

DNR Conservation Officer Josh Wright proceeded to the home and called the Huron County Sheriff\u2019s Office for assistance. Deputy Joshua Loss arrived first and confirmed that there were \u201ca lot\u201d of perch being filleted.<\/p>\n

Authorities found hundreds of walleye<\/a>, panfish, and perch in freezers, and 170 Perch.<\/p>\n

Stanley Garbacz Jr., 68, of Caseville, and Bruce Warren, 53, of Pigeon, were each allegedly over the perch daily catch limit by 60 fish.<\/p>\n

\u201cFish rules and regulations are in place to maintain a healthy natural resource,\u201d said Lt. Dave Shaw, Michigan DNR Law Enforcement Division. \u201cTaking over limits by one or more individuals can impact the harvestable population and which could potentially reduce fish species for future generations.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Garbacz faces two charges of over-limit possession; one each for perch and walleye. He was ordered to pay $7,930 in restitution.<\/p>\n

Warren faces one count of taking a daily over limit of perch and owes $600 in restitution.<\/p>\n

They will also each have additional court fines and costs and could lose their fishing privileges when they are sentenced in Huron County District Court.<\/p>\n

Wright arrived at the residence and received permission to count the 170 perch that Garbacz and Warren caught earlier in the day – putting them each over the daily catch limit by 60 perch.<\/p>\n
