  • how about the boat captain who was in charge of everything going on on his boat, he is 100% responsible for all activities on his boat, he is the guide

  • You would think that someone who describes himself as a "professional spear fisherman" would have a greater awareness of what species and areas were off-limits, but I agree the boat owner/guide ought

  • Get the boat captain, now. This just so stupid.

Weird...

 

1) I thought the guy ran away to Bali. This is what was indicated on his tiktok profile two days ago or something. Probably a desperate decoy ????

 

2) A previous article stated that parrot fishes weren't endangered nor protected. Now a Thai minister is saying they are. Who's mistaken here? The journalists or the minister? One thing's for sure: I couldn't find any parrot fishes in any list of protected or endangered species in Thailand.

He'll just have to cut down on his steroid dosing to compensate for the fine ????

He should have painted some monkeypox scabs on himself. He would have had people helping him to leave ASAP.

Well they are ok with French fries and a slice of lemon.

He was better off in USA, spear fishing on lion fish.

It is a plague over there and you get paid 75$/fish, as they taste good.

Or any fish, none are more worthy than others just because we think some are nicer to look at.

Why is he an idiot? The captain showed him where to fish. Just because he is, supposedly, a professional does not mean he knew he was fishing in a restricted locale. If he knew he was guilty he would not have posted his actions on the internet
