I used to have a net out sometimes as a kid,used to check it while doing my paper-round before school late summer,even back then I used to get a £1 a Lb for salmon.There was a healthy poaching scene in the 70-80s when I was growing up. I remember fishing on southwick prom and there was nearly always a net in against the wall.
My dad fished a drift net legally for a big chunk of my childhood and the amount of fish poached by everyone was probably larger than the ones landed legally. That was by some of the licence holders too.
