Five illegal fishermen were dealt with by officers at Heskth Park, Southport last night.

Just a reminder, this is an offence under the theft act 1968 - Taking or Destroying Fish.

A very fishy story - perpetrators (rumoured to be Fins) now facing scales of justice!

This is well up the SCALE of crime not a lot of OLD TROUT, we mustn't spare the ROD.

What a load of CODswallop. You would have to be a DAB hand to catch fish in Hesketh Park.

It never happened. Just gossip off a load of old Fishwives

Haha, worthy of the Beano, chaps.

I hope they confiscated their Trawler.
