I totally understand the arguments about cats being predators however MOST fisheries that hold cats have them as a secondary species to the much loved(!!) %!%$ and so they are not 'predator' fisheries as such. The ban is not designed to stop people catching the cats it is purely there to minimise the risk of anyone bringing live fish onto the site and releasing them into the lake.

I totally agree that catching a live bait from the lake you are fishing holds no problem with...

Here, here. Must agree that the banning of livebaits seems to defeat the object of predator fishing in the first place to be fair. Rather like if a trout fishery decided to have a 'no flies' rule.

Hi All
I don,t normally add my two penneth but on this subject i am , If and it is an If Nat used livebait on either water mentioned he is in the wrong to go against the fishery rules, but that is not really my point , what I can,t understand is why these fisheries stock Wels Catfish in there fisheries for us to presumabley catch, why can,t we fish for them with there natural food source FISH ! , as long as the live bait is caught from the lake you are fishing what is the problem....

As someone who has worked on a fishery I'm afraid i dont agree with the statement that Nath should have got a'slap on the wrist' and that a total ban would have been 'OTT' - at the end of the day a fishery has to protect its stock - THATS THE REASON PEOPLE PAY MONEY TO GO THERE!

letting someone get away with using lives when they are banned simply sends the wrong message to others, it may be that the lives used are caught on site but it may also be the case...

There is a lesson here somewhere! Don't give away too much info on a forum! You are right Msatch there is a lot of
rule bending when it comes to livebaits on fisheries with catfish in , I have visited fisheries where the locals use
livebaits when they are banned . If you get a fishery that is stuffed with small fish and you can here them feeding
on fish in the night ,it must be tempting to stick a livebait out.It is a shame this lad has been banned from the fishery.

now dont get me wronge ,yes what young nath did was wronge ,as i dont agree with breaking fishery rules now ,all fisheries employ rules for there own reasons ,but you name any angler that hasnt bent the rules a bit ,we have all done it in the past [some still do ,and regular].nath sorry to hear the news about the ban. and i agree with glen ,i dont think certain people laughing about it is very nice ,considering the amount of money the lad has lost etc ,i dont know the full details involved...

nath sorry to hear you,ve been banned for using liveys, glad mr lennon thinks it,s funny, at the end of the day you would,nt have been the only one using liveys at woodys or any other water you should,nt really use em , but maybe you were to open with them, but i don,t think it,s funny, and don,t think it,s a sin telling someone you had it on a leech when you never,.

Hi Nat,

Very nice Cat, nice one mate. Regardless of how you caught it, I think you deserve alot of credit for landing it, that is a massive fish. Well done, Jilesy.
