This is my favorite so far.


Not A Healthy Idea (Nassau County)
ECO's Joseph Munn, Aaron Gordon and MEU ECO Sean Reilly were on boat patrol on 12 October 2008,
patrolling the Long Island Sound. As they approached a boat off of Lloyd Point, they noticed the fishermen on
board had a striped bass which they were about to throw back in the water. The fishermen were asked if they
had any other fish; they replied that they had some bluefish. Officer Gordon boarded the boat and found five
short striped bass in a large cooler in the bow of the boat.

When the illegal fish were found, one of the menspoke up and said, "You got us.? The officers asked the fishermen why they had the fish when they knew they
were too short. They both replied, "Well, our doctors both told us to have more fish in our diets.? ECATs were
issued to each of the men for possession of undersize and over-the-limit striped bass.
