They are usually after the carp which is an invasive species anyway. Who gives a fuck if they deplete the carp stocks. They weren't after carp, they were after pike and roach. Don't know if they got any pike but one took a net full of decent sized roach. Just because you don't give a shit about it doesn't mean I shouldn't, this river is my home! People have eaten fish out of British rivers for thousands of years, why should they stop now?

Eastern Europeans are an invasive species, perhaps it is our patriotic duty to deplete them? They aren't human? Of course they are human, but they have chosen to live in a country where it is illegal to take live fish out of canals and rivers, and they need to respect that law just as I had to respect the different laws in the time I spent in eastern Europe. For example, it is illegal to drive an articulated lorry in Poland when the temperature exceeds 25 degrees celsius, and there would be no point in explaining to the Policja that we didn't have that law in England.

It's illegal to eat fish caught in canals and rivers in the UK and that's what Bogdan and Piotr need to understand if they want to live here. Why should my boat licence money be wasted getting this translated into ten different languages for the benefit of people who understand it anyway but prefer to play the "no speakada English" card?

Rivers have been a source of food for people in Britain for thousands of years. Some rich land owner claims they have a legal right to all of the fish in a river and you are happy to accept it and even help them enforce it. Doesn't that go against your normal way of thinking? Is it just because the people aren't British?

Look, I really fancy a kebab right now, less than 30 feet away from me is a lamb in a field, and hanging up in my engine room is a great big fuck off knife. Perhaps I should be allowed to slit its throat, cook it and eat it, but the simple fact is that I'm not. And that's what eastern Europeans need to understand about fish, regardless of what they may or may not be allowed to do in the third-world shitholes they ran away from.

If not, then that isn't a very good comparison.

I don't do a lot of fishing but I thought you were in fact allowed to take fish and eat them, make them into sex toys or use them to make fireworks. Possibly subject to cruelty laws and a maximum number of fish taken.
I don't really know but I do know I have eaten Perch I caught and it was delicious.
Its a very contenchus subject.

Stabby is obviously not a country boy, or well educated for that matter! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_husbandryIt was a poor example. Now if you had been talking about my lords ornamental deer roaming free in acres of parkland you may have had a bit more of a point.
