HUGE FINE FOR TOO MANY CARP RODS
A Carp angler has been found guilty in court of sneaking out six rods. Ryan Hughes was apprehended at Pavyotts Mill, in Somerset, with two more rods in the water than the Environment Agency legal limit. The prolific day ticket fishery has swims with huts available for £150 for forty eight hours. Fishery regular Hughes, of Newport, South Wales, was fined £440 at Yeovil Magistrates’ for fishing with an unlicensed instrument and fishing with more than four
rods. Hughes was convicted in his absence. In addition, costs of £170 and a victim surcharge of £30 were imposed, making a total penalty of £640.
