Legal Loophole Lets Poachers off the Hook
The Angling Trust has learnt that DEFRA and the Environment Agency (EA) last year accidentally abolished the law which created an offence of fishing in the close season. This will lead to poachers and illegal anglers caught in this spring?s coarse fishing close season getting away with lesser offences when their cases go to court. http://www.anglersnet.co.uk/News/fishing-closed-season-law-2010.html
