Everyone is aware that if you don’t want trouble when you fish, go to specified fishing locations. Apparently some people never learn such as these five people who were arrested for fishing at a nesting site in Orissa. They were caught at the Gahirmatha marine sanctuary in Kendrapada where endangered Olive Ridley turtles nest every winter. The total arrests in this area have now reached a total of 49 this winter alone and should serve as a warning that illegal fishing will not be tolerated.
