The simple answer is no.If I catch a ornamental gold fish or koi from a wild pond or lake can I legally take it home?
Yep that's where this name comes from and I'm in the uk the only reson I ask is cos I know that goldfish and koi carp is an invasive species and I'm on about on public land or water ways that is owned by any clubs or private landGive the guy a break chaps. He has come on and asked a question. He hasn't said he is going to actually take fish, but even if he was considering it, then it might be to put in his own pond given that he mentioned goldfish and koi.
Given his level of English, I very much doubt that he is Eastern European, besides which, I wouldn't think for one minute that someone from Eastern Europe would bother asking if they were allowed to take a fish if they planned to do so.
Given his screen name, I think Taiidan is much more likely a fan of Homeworld.
It's a popular misconception that common (or public) land has no owner, but actually the land is usually owned by the local council.Yep that's where this name comes from and I'm in the uk the only reson I ask is cos I know that goldfish and koi carp is an invasive species and I'm on about on public land or water ways that is owned by any clubs or private land
Just do what you want and stay under the radar! Back in my youth I remember chest freezers of rainbow trout! Lol
My poaching days are gone Stan, too much modern grassing technology these days!!So go right ahead, break local environmental rules and also commit theft as long as you don`t get caught. Real sound advice

The odd bit of fur, feather or fin don't really hurt anyone?
Whilst I do agree with you when it comes to taking fur, feather or fin, I may have to turn a blind eye to c&r poachers.Unless you happen to be the owner of said fur, feather or fin. Sorry, we can agree to disagree I have no time whatsoever for theft (forget calling it poaching, it is theft)
It was something we did when we were young,I've been a poacher, keeper and ghillie so know both sides of things, turned a blind eye to one for the potNo matter how you call it,if you take a fish from a 'wild ' pond or lake it's still theft, someone is bound to own the pond,lake
I thought like that till it was pointed out to me that five people each taking "one for the pot" every few days soon adds up and becomes an empty pond.It was something we did when we were young,I've been a poacher, keeper and ghillie so know both sides of things, turned a blind eye to one for the pot
