So actually he could argue that's he's well within his rights to travel to the tutorial. The rules state that you should work from home where ever possible, but where you can't you can travel to work, providing that when you are at work you maintain correct social distancing. I actually think that he'd have a good case appealing this fine. He was after all travelling to do his normal paid work.

The 2 paying anglers however are on a jolly up and haven't really got excuses.

Good point. But if you weren't actually working where you should have been, in fact you were working where no-one was actually allowed to work, would that then stand up?

I doubt it. I'm not sure poaching would be classed as essential

Was the venue open to other anglers at the time or was it closed/locked down ?
Or was he guesting ...... cough cough.... and guiding ?

Angling not allowed on the venue full stop, nothing to do with lockdown. A friend of mine was taken there as a 'guest'. Poaching pretty rife on there, he said, free for all.

Every man, his dog and his long lost chinchilla are on there now.

Saw it described as “the guesting lake with the worn out swims” recently... thought that was quite apt.

So is this the same lake where another 'name' was supposedly caught a few weeks ago or is this the same story?

I think the other ‘name' you are on about Was caught at another lake but has been fishing the one mentioned.
I don't think the ‘name' was on a tutorial because he had another ‘name' with him Apparently .

Why don't you name them ? I've checked the legal implications and you will be fine 👍
