Georgia game wardens caught two poachers last week in what must have felt like a scene from the past, when Southern outlaws still prowled the banks with telephones.⁠ ⁠ The two poachers were caught red-handed trying to ditch the conspicuous wooden box, but the wardens recognized it for what it was: an antique telephone being used as a deadly (and illegal) fishing device. The Georgia DNR explained that Sgt. Matt Garthright and Warden Chason Brogdon were on patrol in Wilkes County when they came upon the man and woman fishing in a creek. As they approached, the man walked away, tossing the wooden box he was carrying into the water. Neither he nor the woman had a valid fishing license, but the game wardens allowed them to purchase licenses on the spot. The DNR said they charged the man with Shocking Fish and confiscated the antique phone.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #poacher #poaching #poachers #gamewarden #catfish #fishing #fishingseason #catfishfishing #Georgia #o...
