Federal officials said on Monday that fishing regulators have decided to change the way they enforce laws and how they spend the collected fines. Officials added that it was done after it was found in a special investigation that fishermen living in the northeastern parts of the country were made to pay huge fines for minor mistakes. The probe also found that the fine money was used to buy items like international trips and a luxury boat.
