7891. The law relating to the subject of control of fishing in
state waters when delivery is to points beyond state waters was
adopted as an initiative measure at the General Election of November
8, 1938. The reference to Section 845 in the last sentence is to
Sections 8630 to 8632, inclusive, of this code. It reads as follows:
1110--No person shall use or operate or assist in using or
operating in this State or the waters thereof, any boat or vessel
used in connection with fishing operations irrespective of its home
port or port of registration, which fishing boat or vessel delivers
or by which there is delivered to any point or place other than
within this State any fish, mollusks or crustaceans which are caught
in, or taken aboard said boat or vessel from, the waters of the
Pacific Ocean within this State or on the high seas or elsewhere,
unless a permit authorizing the same shall have been issued by the
Fish and Game Commission.
Where it appears to the commission that such permit will not tend
to prevent, impede or obstruct the operation, enforcement or
administration of this code or any provision thereof, and will not
tend to result in fish, mollusks or crustaceans in the waters of this
State being taken or used otherwise than is authorized by this code,
the commission may issue revocable permits under such rules and
regulations and upon such terms and conditions as it may prescribe to
deliver fish, mollusks or crustaceans by the use of such boat or
vessel outside of this State, provided that nothing herein shall
authorize the transportation or carrying out of this State or any
district thereof, of any fish, mollusks or crustaceans where the same
is prohibited by law, and no permit shall be issued which may tend
to deplete any species of fish, mollusk or crustacean, or result in
waste thereof. Any person who uses or operates or assists in using or
operating any boat or vessel in violation of the provisions of this
section is guilty of a misdemeanor and such boat or vessel and the
net, gear or other equipment of said boat or vessel is a public
nuisance and shall be forfeited. It is the duty of every person
authorized to make an arrest for the violation of any of the
provisions of this code, to seize and keep such boat, vessel, net,
gear or other equipment and to report such seizure to the commission.
The commission shall thereupon commence, in the superior court of
the county or city and county in which or nearest to which the
seizure is made, proceedings for forfeiture of the seized property
for its use in violation of this section, and such proceeding shall
be had in the manner and according to the procedure provided by
Section 845 of this code for the forfeiture of nets.
7892. The department shall issue to any person owning or operating
