Hmmm carpers could now be charged by the EA for being asleep even if they are using bite alarms ... That should go down well !!!  What next ? |

On what basis were they charged? It wasn't for using three rods at night when they only hold a single licence (two rods) by any chance, was it?

the way i read it, it was slightly more than just sleeping by his rods as there is a bit of a statement at the end but it doesn't go into much detail.
i got the impression he was a fair old way from his rods and they did him for been unable to control them

It'll have been for not being in control of his rods. He'll either have been too far away, not had bite alarms/remote or have been so comatose that the EA bailiff/his alarms couldn't raise him from his slumbers.

I have been told that the bloke did not have alarms and was asleep a distance away from his rods, which needs no further explanation in to the list of issues with fishing in such a manner.
At the end of the day, if that is the case then i completely back the EA up on this - Power to their elbow. There are thousands of Carpers that sleep when their rods are out every day, can you imagine the storm this would cause if the bloke had actually been fishing quite legitimately?

I read this as sleeping campers...! Suppose I read it right really  there's an old thread under the carp section called camping/carping which sort of sums this up |

Just an excuse for grown men to have a sleepover isn't it? On a more serious note though he probably had what was coming to him if he was that far away from his rods. |
