Dead right Mr Darcy, Cumbria police have always put the word out on their big crackdowns and the main reason why they make it so public is that in an area like Cumbria it is very difficult to locate and catch poachers, especially 'in the act', so in general it's a load of 'hot air'. Very much the main places they make any arrests are on the roads leading to the M6 junctions, of which there are few.
Mind how you go...
