I Just Got Fined... For Fishing
 

OMFG
I just got FINED for going fishing without a fcuking license!
Since when did you need a license to use a fcuking fishing rod?!
£200 FFS!!!!

ARGGHH!!!!!

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Wow. That's ****ing terrible. You can't do anything these days without having to pay for it.

Where did you go fishing?

What !? Thats abit extreme!

A lake, its full of fish... I hate the government!!! :mad:

I fcuking know, I was just like, WTF!!!!
Dang policeman didn't have anything better to do than fine fishers!
Theyre are murderers that they could be catching, and they focus their attention onto unlicensed fishers!!!!

its been about a long time its not something new my dad had to have one when i was a kid

LMFAO


Don't post in capital letters

£200 :bored:

Money grabbing assholes. Why could they have not given you a warning seeing as you didn't know you needed a licence?

No sympathy mate. You broke the law.

I hope you're taking the piss.

He may have broken the law, but he wasn't doing any harm! There are much worse crimes out there. :bored:

Its a fcukin stupin law. It deserves to be broken. Apparently I was lucky cause some people get fined thousands!
Fockin hate this country some times

Omg, thats harsh!

You need a license haha

The law's the law and we must all abide by the law.

About 1% of the UK know about this stupid money grabbing law

Its not the dumbest law by a long way. For example, dedicated Fish and Chips shops are not allowed to open on Sundays, if they sell say burgers and kebabs too thats ok but if they only sell fish and chips thats illegal. TV licences are just as dumb a law, but in the case of the law you broke I can understand why that one exists.

Because it stops people using fishing rods?
Do they expect people to use spears?

I think it probably exists to stop poachers. You might try looking that up.

:shocked:
didn't know it was a law. Seems abit stupid to me tbh.

Its a Law that has been around for a long time , as well.

Yep. It has.

Was there a sign up saying you need a license? Because if not then surely you can appeal against it they can not fine you if there is nothing that says you need one!

fom its a standard thing countrywide so dont think there would need to be signs up as anyone wanting to fish should know this i know in fishing shops camping shops etc if you buy something fishing related they remind you about the license

I didn't think this was uncommon?

aww poor you thats a bit poo!
