Report
Illegal Fishing |
 |
|
The
Environment Agency, recently
had a report from one of the Oxford and Abingdon Angling Alliance bailiffs, of a number of set lines consisting of a long length of line with up to 20 baited treble hooks set out along one of their reaches of the Thames. They were removed by the bailiff and disposed of but unfortunately
they didn’t get to hear about it for a few weeks.
We would like remind all our members to call the EA incident hotline if they see anything at all suspicious. The number is
0800 80 70 60. |
