The U.S. Coast Guard intercepted a Mexican fishing crew in south Texas water off Corpus Christi on Sunday and allegedly found 450 red snapper onboard, according to an agency press release.

"Although the red snapper season in federal waters started today (Sunday), it wasn't meant for foreign vessels without permits," Cmdr. Daniel Deptula, the response officer at Sector Corpus Christi, said in the release. "It appears they stole the daily equivalent of approximately 225 licensed citizens, provided the fish were legal size."

Coworker of mine knows one of these fellas very well that helped in this bust and told me about it the day it happened.

I won't say what my coworker said "they should have done with the mexicans" though

And If I remember him saying, they had to throw all the fish out. I might be wrong in hearing this
