Well at the moment one of our clubs waters is being poached,mainly by pikies,they are easy to spot,no landing nets,plastic bags for their bait and tackle,no unhooking mat,all rules for the water,no doubt barbed hooks too,they will almost certainly take the fish,a friend had three appear behind him yesterday,they spread out and edged towards him while he was playing a foul hooked fish,he felt very threatened,he is around 58 yoa,two of these were 20's,the other 40ish,how the hell can clubs protect their fisheries against such onslaughts,the water has no public access so they are trespassing(not that they care a monkeys),getting anyone out,the police for example takes an age in which time assaults could occur,if they got there quickly these people have no respect for the law whatsoever,at 68 I am concerned that I might be at the top end of the fishery,on my own late on and be confronted by this sort of scum....
