Investigators say the suspect resisted arrest and suffered minor injuries during "a struggle." 

Police say the Fisheries Department officers transported the man to the Musquodoboit Harbour RCMP detachment, where he was assessed by paramedics. 

The 46-year-old man, who wasn't identified by police, was released and is scheduled to appear in Dartmouth provincial court on May 21 to face charges.

The lucrative baby eel — or elver — fishery is currently underway in the province, with the federal department attempting to enforce a new system where licensed fishers must document their catch in a smartphone application.
