I'm from Illinois and I would never do anything like that. But, it's like saying if the guy was from Iowa all people from Iowa would do that. It don't matter where your from it's wrong.
This is the Root River at the steelhead weir in Racine, that net is a violation of the law and a DNR, agent would have a field day with him and his buddy, but a lot of eastern European types have little regard for fish and game laws ( two of them once braced me, while I was fishing from the public pier in Racine close to the river mouth, informing me that I had to leave because I " was fishing in their spot, that they won in the lottery, and no one else could fish there" I called the DNR, and was informed that there is no such lottery and the two were just cheap thugs trying to intimidate me ( illegal) a warden showed up and arrested the two of them, and confiscated their gear!
Though I live in Illinois and hate all the vitriol, that's aimed at us I grew up hunting and fishing in Wisconsin ( my grandfather's brother once the Chief of Police in Kimberly, had a place on Lake Poygan in Winnebago County where I spent summers from the time I was 5 until I was 18) and I have the utmost respect for their laws, I don't get up that way very often anymore, but when I do the antics of some of these highbinders drive me nuts!
as a biologist I find it funny they make the season you are supposed to fish, the same season they won't really be eating. Fish can go months without eating if they aren't in mood. Why is everyone at same place in river anyway?
The low head dam concentrates all the fish in that area. They make the season at that time to protect the Salmon population and this is also the only time they are accessible to bank fisherman. Are you really a biologist?🤔
There is a dam, and a fish weir, that the Wisconsin DNR uses to collect salmon and steelhead eggs, to raise in their hatcheries and share the resulting fish with other states and their own restocking program at that spot, there is also a fish ladder there, ( that used to have a large viewing window but the local punk vandals destroyed that, and there's no money to restore it) it's an interesting process to watch the fish are caught off of the ladder milked for their eggs, and milt, and any fish showing signs of disease are culled out the eggs and milt are mixed in large stainless steel bowls and placed into aerated containers for transport to the hatcheries, then the fish that are not culled are placed into a tube, that sends them upriver.
Exactly why I stopped fishing the Root and Pike, these guys have ruined everything. You have to drive to N. Michigan or North of Sheyboygan to escape from these types
Because its a fish refuge. Theres a dam here so fish are blocked at this point to get them to go into the weir where the dnr spawns fish to take the eggs to the hatchery. The club i am a member of rasied a major portion of the funds the get this built. So we can have a vibrant lake michigan fishery.
I was there with no fishing pole enjoying the park 5 minutes from my house. Wasn't really my problem, just shocking to see such blatant stupidness in front of other fisherman (with cellphones). I'd think the people fishing there would have called that are following the rules. Why does it have to be me? You probably didn't watch until the end but long story short the police did come so somebody called.
@@cindypolk756it’s ok snowflake. There are rules for a reason. All of your comments and replies are baseless due to your ignorance as to why those rules and regulations exist. The man was stealing
Racine Police did show up. But they probably just asked when the cookout was. The DNR did drive-by through the area 20 minutes prior to this knob entering the water. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. He saw me recording and gave zero f***s 🤷👎
I'm eastern European, and I have never fished without a license. Unless you did a DNA test on him, you have no idea what ethnicity he is. But right away you have to label people. Now some people who read your comment will be prone to stereotype. Thanks
Ikr, surrounded by lakes and rivers and trees, four seasons, hunting and fishing opportunities, more coastline than any state besides Alaska. Sounds horrific!

I recognize Root river area in Racine city.
Finally, Police arrived 5:26.
Anybody make a phone call ?.....................
That behavior is absolutely disgusting,ruins it for the rest of us
He is probably from Chicago stupid as a box of rocks
@@terryvogel5252Well, looks like he has more fish then anyone...

How do you know he's from Illinois? Would've called the DNR in a heartbeat.
Hi there CheesyCheetah! Where is this river at so I can join and drop a line and catch some salmon. Thank you.
Nothing with calling it in. This person is a thief, stealing fish from those who are doing it legally.
That’s a maggot for ya .
God gave them to everyone. Man took that right away
@@cindypolk756god gave them to those who should be doing the right way, he took advantage of your “god given” fish. Your sad.

Don't let this shit go....unacceptable
🎼do this don’t do that can’t you read the sign🎵
those salmon made him loose his mind, he just went caveman bear animal in shit, splashing around swinging wildly, rwaaarg!!!
Seems like a stupid rule to me. What is wrong with fishing the entire river?
Because its a fish refuge. Theres a dam here so fish are blocked at this point to get them to go into the weir where the dnr spawns fish to take the eggs to the hatchery.

You sound stupid!😂😂😂😂😂
smh at you
That's illegal as heck here in Michigan.
As it should be!
He is from illinois what do you expect.
It's fricking awful. I would have left. He's making a mockery of sport fishing.
Why didn't you call? you are adding and abetting. Call the T.I.P. line
Just another FIB
Too busy filming too call?!!!

And you know he's from Illinois because
@@redeyetrucker520 ... Because I saw him get out of his car, with Illinois plates.
Don't blame illinois. He probably lives in Chicago.
No it’s a maggot for sure .
Don’t try that in Michigan!!!
Why?
Thats bull shit
No that’s a maggot.
Pure madness
Bahaha 😆 you really think you need a license to fish LoL you definitely don't and that's a fact 💯
legally you do
He actually was a Wisconsin cop……..avoided criminal penalty by giving half the fillets to the other cops.
i would have called the police immediately...slob poacher

Probably a Eastern European. We have issues with them fishing with no licenses and other BS. Just a guess?

CALL IN ON THAT FLATLANDER PUT HIM IN JAIL!
Around my parts. You may get your ace whipped. Northern people are very nosy.
