Fishermen from a boat that docked in Padstow are jailed after authorities say they discarded a lobster catch during an inspection. According to reporting, Ashley Rescorla, 40, was skippering the Amber Mabel when it docked in Padstow in April last year. The articles state that the lobster haul was thrown overboard while the boat was being checked, and that prosecutors or authorities viewed the catch as illegal. As a result of the incident, the men face custodial sentences. The reports describe the case as involving actions taken during the inspection at the harbour, rather than an alleged offence discovered only after the catch had been landed and assessed. The cited accounts focus on the act of discarding the lobsters during the inspection process and the resulting legal consequences for the skipper and those involved, without adding further details about the specific charges or the exact length of sentences.
