Should fishing be banned at Abbey Fields?
Wildlife lover Mick Cole fears illegal fishing at Abbey Fields lake is endangering the lives of birds.
Irresponsible fishermen and youngsters using the pool are leaving behind lines with floats and hooks which could kill swans, ducks and their young.
In the last months Mr Cole has helped rescue two swans which were in distress because of the lethal litter.
He said: "The line was around their feet and the swans couldn't paddle because it was like a shackle."

I've never heard of the venue, must have a publicity ban, he's in trouble now.

Every local angler in the land will be going for a peep around, I think he's shot himself in the foot.
