Charter Capt. Found Guilty of Illegal Commercial Fishing On LI
A Connecticut charter captain was found guilty of illegal commercial fishing off Long Island, Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney said. Michael Tenedine, 58, of East Haven, was found guilty after a trial of operating a charter vessel without a permit; illegal possession of black sea bass for poaching; and possessing Black sea bass, a protected species due to overfishing, Tierney said. The trial conviction comes as Tierney ramps up his “Everblue Initiative,” a collaboration with state and local law enforcement to protect the more than 60 percent of Suffolk County square mileage comprised of water.
