If so move the fish to a lake with a otter fence problem solved

Does that mean he will now be moving on to waters new so won't care if it gets fenced or not?

Great result.
But of course he is going to stay on there until the fence is 100% completed

Been mentioned that it was caught off an island in an out of bounds area - if that's the case (sure someone will come along soon and put me straight with the facts) it doesn't count along with the previous capture that was using boats that were also banned.

Hopefully I'm wrong, and I'll be first to stick my hand out, if not, i feel for the other anglers that have just been mugged off (Again).

Apologies for upsetting guys that follow these people like sheep, sometimes the record has to be put straight.

Nowt wrong with the last capture, Tom Stokes, I think you might mean Dave Lane!

Hope there's nothing dodgy about Greg's capture.

Fair one MM, i may have got it mixed up. Good angler is TS, does the business and cracks on keeping himself to himself.

I would just like to get the record straight before it's rammed down our necks on social media. Was it caught in an out of bounds area or not.

I don't fish Burghfield but know a few guys that travel far and wide and put a lot of graft in on that pit. I know for a fact they will be pissed as the area in question is renowned for being a sanctuary for the fish as it's impossible to get a line there from the swims stipulated within the rules. The BC can be spotted in there all the time as it's a known safe zone.

Anyway - time will tell.

Cheers.

JS.

Maybe it's people s**tbaging him, if true, lol. How gutting catching it all shady and moody from an out of bounds. Don't count so back to the drawing board and catch it properly, without poaching it.

Well dodge.

Nothing wrong with Dave Lane's capture was there ?
I do recall some bull**** about an illegal swim, but he had permission to cut out the swim.

Good Angling that man. Well deserved capture. If the odd liberty was taken, it wouldn't of been the first would it.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
