I have just turned on chanel 4 and there is this program telling you and showing you how to catch pike kill it and cook it ,shurely this is encouraging people to kill these fish.

They have just said the Pike is Brittians MOST HATED FISH.
Think this program is very dated.

They are advertising to go to Channel 4.com /wildgourmets for the Pike recipies.

They said that regarding eating the Pike is regarded in this country as not being good, whereas in France it’s treated as a delacacy.

Are you not allowed to catch, kill and remove one or two freshwater fish eac and every time you visit a waterway under the terms of your National Rod Licence.

The programme is not aimed at showing just how good the fish stocks are in this country but to demonstrate that you can infact live well of locally caught/grown produce.

No one has sparked up about the 1/2 dozen pheasants they shot and later traded.

I can’t quite imagine them turning up at a commercial to catch carp for tea, so in that respect the stocks are safe 😉
