River Poachers Busted - EA Officers Attend Cleaning Up Our Rivers
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ต.ค. 2024
- Day of action on the Mighty River Ribble, catching multiple poachers fishing in the closed season, no licenses and no club tickets. Multiple Agencies take control and start cleaning up the litter and mess poachers leave behind. Environment Agency Enforcement Officers attend and deal with three individuals for poaching offences. Angling Trust VBS and community volunteers assist in a big river clean up for Spring 2024.
Lets hope they can start putting the licence money towards prosecututing big companies that are polluting the rivers all over the country.
My locals polluted with raw sewage she's slowly dying 😢
Rod licence money isn't for prosecuting pollution offences, thatvfunding comes from a totally different funding stream.
You're going to have to lobby your MP for change - rod licence money goes towards funding fisheries enforcement. It's not the EA's fault that they're criminally underfunded, it's political.
@ashab1 according to keir starmer hes going to sort it by stopping bonus payments to water company execs. Despite having no authority over how private limited companies pay their execs. This is assuming of course he'll have time after fixing 100,000 pot holes, building 1.5 million homes, 300 prisons, making the nhs work weekends, getting dentists to look at 100,000 kids teeth, (despite them being self employed and him having no power over them) build 300 new gp sugeries, (despite the fact he cant staff them, cure the boats problem by investigating and arresting the gangs, (they operate abroad no power over them either, but he probably means he'll just let them in) and the rest of the crap promises he's made! Maybe to fund all this he'll put fishing licences up 😂😂😂
Yes them big company needs more inspiration and bigger fines when dumping
Someone needs to start a petition going you'll easily get 150,000 signatures 💯
Well done & respect to you all for keeping our fisheries & surroundings clean & safe for wildlife and humans.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎣
great to see people caring ..60 years an angler now and was a bailiff for 15 years ....well done folks
You and the volunteers do a wonderful job on the ribble. Really grateful for your videos and efforts.
Great work by you and the volunteers. No excuses for leaving litter anywhere. Prosecutions and penalties need to be lots more rigorous. Well done to you all 👍🏻
Huge respect on the work you put in m8!
EA are totally useless- me and many of our club members reported poaching to them dozens of times and nobody did anything! But i did get an email to say thames water would be dumping more shit into the river!
ITS BEYOND A JOKE!
its good to see people cleaning up our rivers ,why people leave litter strewn around the river and lake banks is unbelievable.
Great work... ❤the ribble
Good work Ian and volunteers. 👏👏👏
Well done for a brilliant job , guys . Its disgusting that some people don`t take care of such beautiful surroundings . But I do believe that there are more of us that do care than the ones who dont . People like yourselves inspire the rest of us to keep the countryside clean . Thank you !
Thanks Colin! Hope to see you out on the banks this season.
@@PikerBiker Hopefully , Ian . The rivers looking fantastic and very inviting !
Top fellas ..... Boils my urine when anglers leave rubbish behind. Discarded line and hooks cause more suffering to wildlife than people realise.
Me to .
God bless.this lovely river is here for all to enjoy and respect please do the right thing and respect mother nature in all her glory keep these places clean and safe for all to enjoy well done the people doing the hard work on the day 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Good work lads . Glad I did subscribe to this awesome channel . Keep it going strong and keep hammering hard .
Great work. Brock means Badger...I believe.
That was a magnificent deep bodied roach in that pikes mouth. Don't know if she can swallow it.
The mess some anglers leave behind.. then they complain if public give them grief. Where are they in their heads I ask?
The mighty nir nir having a fine time sniffing out the litter
..
Cheers matey!
Just come across you. What a great effort. You and the volunteers do. Hope the ones who got chaught get fined also told to clean up after the fishing season along the banks. Keep the great work up. Not hard to take your own rubbish away and clean up. Respect others who use this river. 👍
Thanks Vincent, I will not rest until our river returns to an acceptable level of cleanliness and is poacher free
Great effort by those involved.Bring some of those Barbel and Chub back next time your home! 😁
Well in, mate! Similar thing happened to me a few years ago. Caught some slimeballs netting. Cops called...all sorted. Gotta take action when this shit is seen. 👍
Absolutely commendable for the great effort you and the volunteers put in trying to keep our rivers clean and Safe 👍 just a thought ! How's about when these disspicable poachers are caught and prosecuted Why don't the court put a order on them to do a form of community service instead of a fine ? And do a form of voluntary work party's on the river bank they have been caught at poaching ?
That is a fantastic idea! I will try my best to see if we can start something like that.
ian, perhaps next time you are planning to do a litter pick, you should advertise it here.people may come along. Maybe you could give us some angling tips while we are there.
as you know I only live local and if available would gladly pop down to help. Jim
Sounds like a plan John, will definitely make this happen
Loved it wonderful work now subscribed.
Thanks Lee, really appreciate your support for the channel
Good to see
Can you get a day ticket from the bp station to fish this stretch?
Yes on the left hand bank as you look downstream whilst standing on bridge. Map of where you can fish is on ticket. The right hand bank is free, check out my Ultimate Ribble guide video for the free stretches

So just a question. I've started fishing recently with my mate from work in the local river, tidal and a bit higher up so non tidal. I do have a 2 rod licence so I was just wondering then am I allowed to fish there? I'm only asking because I saw the long lining video and I'm not really sure what that is, so is spinning and float fishing alright?

Litter is the blight of the UK. If you get 5 years prison for killing someone by stabbing you can imagine littering or fly tipping would be 10 minutes community service.
all very good but we need the stop of crap that gets pumped in to our rivers, just to much is going in
9:10 wheres this spot?
Some Irish accent ther we’re is that outside Dublin ?
@@Waynebridgeof Lisburn pal
@@PikerBiker must be a hour or two down the road I take it you all sound the same lol no offence though great work helping out with the river me and my dad fished ther for years keep it up good job 👍
A yup Ashley, still got a ticket for Trevorent?
Here here
Foreigners allowed to vote since 2004, it's wrong but why hasn't it been an issue till now
Well done Ian
But can you do a quick video next time there a clean up as I'm not on other social media
Ps keep a bag in your kit and take home more than you bring in rubbish
Yes mick, I will do that mate
@PikerBiker cheers probably will see it so I can pop down n help
This is a great idea, especially with a few tips thrown in. I have taken a huge amount of rubbish from some beautiful places in the Lakes. Airbeds, countless beer cans, bottles, line, old traces leave it better than when you came is my thoughts.
Yeh man love the Ribble stil get reprobate,s sad as fuck
Why don't the councils have people doing this work we pay enough taxes its the same as the state of the roads
Paying tax doesn't give people the right to drop litter. If they behaved more responsibly, then our taxes could be spent on better things, such as the roads.
why are people not allowed to take a fish or two to take home to feed the family , thats the main reason i go trout and grayling fishing , if i want to go fishing for pleasure then ill go fishing in a pond or a lake where the water is not so clear.
Great effort 👍🏻
Get yourself down the Shannon eh
Fishing in UK is fked up. There's nowhere to fish, except few small carp lakes on a day ticket.
Most of the time the EA guys target easy prey, IE the angler that they can sit and watch in their nice warm 4x4 who occasionally catch more fish than allowed and NOT the poachers and netters etc etc !!!!!!! Sort it out and do your job properly and not take back handers to turn a blind eye !!.
