New Hampshire Operation Game Thief comes through again!
Conservation Officer Rob McDermott received an OGT tip from a concerned angler that a person had been fishing Archery Pond in Allenstown early mornings and taking more than the two fish limit. On September 8th, CO McDermott arrived at the pond around sunrise and the described suspect was already fishing. The CO took a position in the woods and conducted surveillance on the suspect. Shortly after the CO’s arrival, the suspect began to pick up to leave. CO McDermott approached the suspect and while checking his fishing license the CO found that the suspect had 12 Brook Trout over the limit. Archery Pond is fly fishing only and is a handicapped accessible pond.
