26 separate charges just for obstruction seems a high number tho.
Theres probably more like.
Fauilure to provide licence
Failure to provide address etc
Failure to stop and assist police
Verbally abuse
Failure to let authorities check your catch

Practically he didn't follow the rules so they got him for everything they could for causing a hassle

I actually remember that. Wasn’t to far from him but could hear him. I believe their was a language Barrier problem and waiving of a flag. Fisheries tried to get close but on drift with engine running and moving away at times. Police basically watched and circled . They all drifted/slow moved from Clifton Springs to st Hellens-duration 1.5-2hrs
