Environment Agency Enforcement Officers caught five unlicensed anglers trying to steal fish to eat from the Shropshire Union Canal at Telford, in Shropshire.
They found the anglers carrying out ten offences in total, and prosecutions are expected in court by the end of the year. EA byelaws allow up to 15 small fish of up to 20cm to be taken, but these had far more dead fish with them.
