An angler was cited by the Missouri Department of Conservation after he posted a photo of a "stringer full of fish."

An MDC agent cited the angler who was fishing at Hager Lake in Farmington, after the angler kept black bass of "illegal length." He also kept too many of the fish, according to MDC. A photo from the department shows at least eight fish.

"St. Francois County Agent Clayton Lewis recently cited an angler that kept these illegal sized largemouth bass and over limits -- just so he could take a picture of a stringer full of fish," the MDC wrote in a Facebook post Monday.
