Two carp anglers have been fined after being caught fishing illegally at Dromore.

Both appeared at Craigavon Magistrates’ Court, where they collectively admitted a total of five breaches after being caught on March 20.

Wayne Hull (51) of Ashmount Gardens, Lisburn, pleaded guilty to two breaches of legislation prescribed under the Fisheries Act (Northern Ireland) 1966, namely unlicensed fishing and failing to provide his name and address.

DAERA Fisheries Protection Officers had been on routine patrol of Mill Lodge carp fishery on Lurgan Road, Dromore, which is owned by the Northern Ireland Carp Angling Society (NICAS).

When Hull was approached and asked for his details in order to perform a check of the online system to confirm a fishing licence was in place, he explained that he was an officer of the club and that all fishing licenses had been checked previously for all anglers present.

He then provided a false name, along with two different dates of birth.
