The old saying "ignorance of the law is no excuse" applies here. Anyone with a fishing license should be able to identify their catch. This is especially true for spearfishing. If you don't know what something is, why kill it? I was at Marineland one day when a guy came up to me with an Electric Ray that I used to see on many dives. He asked me if it was edible. This angered another diver that he broke the guy's Riffe gun in several pieces. The guy was lucky that's all that was destroyed.
