Thanks Dave.
As it would be difficult for the agencies to determine who is or not a commercial gatherer and from what you say above I would determine the limit is not voluntary but would be covered in the bye law. So if stopped with more than 3lb the excess will be taken. Are there any other penalties (over and above removing excess worms) for taking more than your fair share?
Not trying to be pedantic but feel it is useful (a must) for those members that do collect bait for themselves and maybe friends that they know the current rules/regulations
Dave that is a bit of a contradiction. If collecting ragworm is limited on a voluntary code agreement then it is not enforceable or is it regulated with a bye law ie not voluntary that you need a licence to collect over 3lb, Voluntary codes cannot be prosecuted a byelaw can. Not that I collect bait but it might be important for others to know the limits applied
Haven't got my numbers book here but the centre of the Poole spoil grounds is 50 37 555 - 001 52 738. Don't fish here but look around the area for a bank or gully to fish. The general area should be shown on your plotter
Sadler would be a good choice for a short day, expect whiting maybe conger and very possibly cod. I would give the Peveril Ledge area a miss but nearer to home the spoil grounds might be worth a try. Dolphin Bank is ok for whiting and cod
