A Lower Brule Sioux Tribal Officer alerted a state conservation officer about fisherman who might have too many lines and may be overbagged. Working together, the officers arrested two Minnesota poachers for being over their limit on walleyes and for using too many fishing poles. State law states you may only use two fishing poles and have only eight fish in possession. The pair were fined a total of $806 and must pay $600 in civil damages. The poachers had even buried some of the fish under their pickup to keep from being caught. Another TIPs case investigated by the Faulk County Sheriff's Office and a conservation officer lead to the arrest of six South Dakota poachers possessing seven untagged deer. The Pierre Police Department and local conservation officers investigated a case which lead to the arrest of a person who had shot six deer with a .22 cal. rifle and then left them lay.
