Digby Fisheries officers stay busy, seize halibut and scallops and lay numerous charges
Department of Fisheries area have had a busy month – since April 10 they have seized halibut in Delaps Cove, scallops at the Digby wharf, and carried out a detailed inspection of the documentation of a fishplant in Delaps Cove.

The Courier regrets the confusion. (1:40 p.m. May 31, 2015)]
