Tons of dead striped bass in illegal gill net
Friday, May 13, 2011 at 12:00AM 
In what is becoming an all to familiar story, two more illegal gill nets have been recently found on the Chesapeake. One of these was a 1,400-yard net containing almost 7,000 pounds of rotting striped bass.
DNR is offering a $30,500 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the poachers.
