    Hi,

    The mod on Angling has banned me for one week over this post calling it racist. Eastern Europeans caught killed and ate the pike in that fishery, they were caught and fined for doing so. Its crazy saying thats racism.

    Before the Euros ate the whole bloody lot Pike could be caught up to the bridge, beyond to probably. The numbers and size are way down from what it was 12-15yrs ago, whats a decent size pike now ? Its a good spot for big trout too.

    Hi,

    He just linked to here twice and to the FAQ
    Generalizations regarding foreign anglers are no longer acceptable.

    There was no warning, no removing of the post just a one week ban. What I said is not a generalization, they have been caught doing it and fined.
