Just for the record, there are poachers in Matties grove Barkhamsted in peoples forest almost every day (every weekend too)
in the middle of the catch and release area at the beach. I am sick of reporting them especially when i looked up the penalties (laughable} They are using spin tackle with Treble hook lures, snelled hooks etc and keeping all fish at a pretty good rate. Soon the area will be cleared out and they will move on.
