If it is legal fishing then the British angler has no grounds for complaint. And certainly not to complain that they have fewer fish to catch.

Commercial fisheries are usually complexes of man-made lakes and lodges, when Carp is mentioned we tend to think of course fishing which is also known as catch-and-release.
The amount of commercial fisheries(course that is
) that have been constructed over the last decade is breathtaking, they have sprung up all over the place and are the main reason for many club members not re-newing club memberships.
I am a member of Hyndburn&B.Burn who have many well kept waters which are both strictly baliffed and have regular water quality checks to keep 'on top' of any diseases which I can say, havn't heard of for many years.
