195.(1) Subject to subsection (2), where a person is convicted of an offence
under any provision of this Act, any fish illegally [either] taken by him or
in his possession at the time of the offence and also any boat (other than a
sea-fishing boat), and any fishing engine or other thing whatsoever by means
or in respect of which the offence was committed shall, as a statutory
consequence of conviction, stand forfeited.

(2) Subsection (1) shall not apply to a vehicle.

[(3) Where more than twenty per cent. by weight of the fish contained in any

the purposes of determining under subsection (1) whether they were illegally
taken or are illegally in any person's possession, be deemed to be undersized
fish.

(4) In subsection (3) "undersized" has the same meaning as in section 192(2).]
