Lid 194 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 What's the issue? Is it really any different to poaching deer/hare/rabbit/game birds? Never been into angling so I guess i just don't understand the rage... The problem is that natural fish stocks are too low due to factors such as pollution, abstraction, etc, so killing more has a far greater impact than poaching a few rabbits. In the case of stocked fisheries, the cost of fish theft at this level is too high to sustain. Fair enough can understand why anglers would get the hump with them taking wild stock then but surely taking from stocked fisheries is just the same as taking birds from a shoot? Well apart from trout fisheries, the fish in stocked waters are not intended to be taken by anyone and cost time and money to replace when stolen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
