Two of four men ordered by Cheatham County General Sessions Court in the summer of 2013 not to fish again in Tennessee until the summer of 2016, because of the severity of their violations, have been caught ignoring that order and are headed back to court.
In June of 2013 Kongham Phenevongsa, a 70-year-old resident of Nashville, and Khamnouane Keomanychanh, a 61-year-old resident of Antioch, were among four men who pleaded guilty to catching a total of 360 stripe (white bass) above the daily creel limit for that particular species of fish.
Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency officer Brad Bagwell charged each man in March of 2013 with catching 60 fish above the daily limit after inspecting their boat as they prepared to leave the Cumberland River just below Cheatham Dam near Ashland City.
Last week, wildlife officers Dustin Deaton and Eric Tummins caught Phenevongsa and Keomanychanh on the river approximately a mile below Cheatham Dam after receiving information that the two men were fishing.
The wildlife officers charged both with fishing on a revoked license, plus illegally taking fish, said officer Deaton. They are scheduled to appear in Cheatham County General Sessions Court Jan. 28.
Officer Tummins, along with officer Bagwell, handled the over-the-limit case for TWRA in 2013 that led to a three-year revocation of licenses for Phenevongsa, Keomanychanh, and two others.
