Pleased to report on a most interesting and helpful talk to Committee by the new Fife Wildlife Crime Officer who is the point of contact for all wildlife crime in the county. The talk covered not only wildlife crime such as Deer Coursing and badger baiting, but also the Salmon and Freshwater Fisheries (Consolidation) act 2003 where In order to fish for freshwater fish (including Brown Trout) and migratory fish (sea and freshwater) you need written permission from the landowner or a fishing club. Committee found this helpful for handling and reporting the frequent random Permit checks they carry out throughout the season.
