porkypowell 2 Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Hi, In the fishing world theses visitors welcome as they are, are helping them selves to the coarse fish for the table. Knowing the sporting dog world well and the people who exist in this subculture I would expect that any sporting dog owner would be only to gald it inform any polish or other member of the european community of the code of conduct Have any of you lot come across any helping them selves to rabbits or other animals for the pot. If so what reaction did you get from them. My personal experience is they can be quiet vocal but I persist in educating them to the rules in the fishing world. Others fishermen shy away from the situation Simon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 24,245 Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Well, I may inncur the wrath of the coarse fishermen; but as a trout fisher and a lurcher worker, I eat what I catch, so what IS wrong with eating ANY fish you catch ? Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I total agree with eating your quarry I have eat most including fox (meat of the devil). Its just that ours guest, through no fault of their own see to be unaware of the need for licences or permission. Education is the answer but that is a long term thing.

chartpolski 24,245 Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 (edited) So it's o.k. to eat a stocked trout, but not a roach or a bream? I've never coarse fished, but know plenty who do, and eat their catch. Is it an ettiquite thing, law, or what ? Cheers. Edited February 13, 2007 by chartpolski Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chartpolski 24,245 Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I seem to have got hold of the wrong end of the stick, (or rod), I thought this was about eating coarse fish. If they are wiping places out by illegal means, of course they should be stopped !!! Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Whilst first wishing to declare a basic lack of interest in the thrust of the debate here, I'd like to throw in a snippet of what I consider interesting information. Maybe some of you will? Here it is; Some decades ago my mum got a book. I believe it was 'free', from the electricity show room? Anyway, it was Fish Recipes. Damndest thing is, it actually advised the reader on how (Traditionally, in uk) such things as Pike and Bream were cooked for the table! (I distinctly remember it said Pike are bony as hell). Of course, this information may have related to a century ago? But there it is. It's only 'somewhere along the line' (Oh god! That wasn't a deliberate pun!) that we stopped doing what they still do. There ye go. Just a bit of input Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JOEB Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 So it's o.k. to eat a stocked trout, but not a roach or a bream? I've never coarse fished, but know plenty who do, and eat their catch. Is it an ettiquite thing, law, or what ?Cheers. Being a carp fisherman and baliff of a couple of lakes, fish care is a subject I feel pretty strongly about......we spend a lot of time and effort nurturing the stock and the landscape of our lakes. Some of the old warriors can be 30 years plus, real old english stock that can never be replaced. The new stock are allso no cheap with a 20 or 30 lb fish costing anything up to £2000. You can not compare these type of fish to Trout or even Salmon, as trout are reared on mass for stocking into put and take type lakes, and wild trout and salmon have in general a very short life cycle in the wild. Its like some c**t nicking and eating your dogs!! Hope that makes it a bit more clear Chartpolski :thumbs-up: Cheers, J Quote Link to post Share on other sites

juckler123 707 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) Ive eaten course fish trout salmon carp barble pike perch zander and gudgeon we used to sell pike to the game dealers at 50p a pound whats the difference between poaching fish and game none as far as i can see only its legal with fish if you have a licence just because these fellows eat fish in their native country why shouldnt they do it here i would advise em to buy a licence and that would be it lets face it the government let em in this country so as buisnesses could use them for cheap labour if they were paid the right wage i bet they wouldnt bother eating river fish Edited February 14, 2007 by juckler123 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Frank Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) Theirs a lot of eastern folks over here, who kill every course fish they come across. Pike have gone down in numbers since they have arrived and they are protected over here aswell. Frank. Edited February 14, 2007 by Frank Quote Link to post Share on other sites
timmy k 591 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 a fella i know who fishes in irland alot for pike say alot of the lakes have been ruined by germans coming over for a holiday, killing pike of all sizes and taking them back home but on alot of trout and salmon rivers they kill alot of pike around 6-7pounds apperently they are a bigger danger for the game fish. so rather than waste them somebody should eat them, i have also seen pike being cook on river cottage Quote Link to post Share on other sites
