Well, it may seem a bit harsh I agree, but cross contamination of waters is a serious thing, our native Crays are really struggling, not saying you did, or are stupid enough to spread the signals, but folk do, and eventually it will wipe our whites out, I know it's a kick in the nuts been on the wrong end of it, but I do believe the ea need to take a stance on protection of native stocks.
Had you gone about it the right way, the ea grant a free licence to trap and transport them, no harm done, everyone's a winner, all it takes is a call.
