By The Editor 1st Jun 2023

The UK government have reported that a Macclesfield man has been sentenced for fishing offences.

Adam Greenwood of Macclesfield appeared before Crewe Magistrates Court on the 16 May 2023 after a routine patrol at Astbury Mere, Congleton, by the Environment Agency found Mr Greenwood fishing without a valid licence for his three fishing rods.

The court issued Mr Greenwood a fine of £220, costs of £135 and a victim surcharge of £88 amounting £443; 13 times the cost of a fishing licence.
