Underwater fishing

From Corriere Elbano - News of September 20, 1960 

Underwater fishing

Given that underwater fishing is a popular sport in Elba, Vai Stefano, 35, and Galeazzi Giacomo, 49, both from Marciana, thought about a quicker and more practical way.

 Armed with explosive material, in the waters of Pomonte.

They planned and enacted a...fishing match. But they got caught and reported to the judicial authority. Vice judge of Portoferraio lawyer Antonio Lupi, who clearly didn't like the way this underwater sport was played, sentenced each of them to 20 days of arrest and a 8.000 lire fine. Defence: lawyer Ciummei.
