Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries enforcement agents cited a subject for alleged fishing violations on Nov. 13 in Rapides Parish.

Agents cited Jerald Tyler, 57, of Clifton, for possessing over the limit of crappie and fishing without a basic fishing license.

Agents received a complaint about a subject taking over the legal limit of crappie from Kincaid Lake. Agents responded to the scene and found Tyler fishing from the bank of Kincaid Lake.

Agents made contact with Tyler and found him in possession of 102 crappie without a basic fishing license. The legal limit for crappie for this lake is 50 crappie per day per licensed fisherman.

Agents seized the crappie and donated them to a local charity.

Taking over the limit of crappie brings up to a $350 fine. Fishing without a basic fishing license brings up to a $50 fine.

Tyler will also be assessed with civil restitution totaling $612 for the illegally taken crappie.

Agents involved in this case are Lt. Chad Watts and Senior Agent Dustin Barton.
