In a remarkable occurrence at the Bass Pro Shop located in Gulf Coast Town Center, surveillance footage revealed a man seizing a sizable 50-pound tarpon from the shop’s indoor tank using a fishing net picked off the store’s shelf. After the act, he was seen vacating the premises with the live fish in hand. Law enforcement officials and conservation officers are seeking information to identify the individual responsible for the theft.
With a shared goal, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the Lee County Sheriff’s Office, and Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers are actively working together and urge anyone with details about the incident to come forward.
