Six men have been fined thousands of pounds after using 'barbaric' fishing methods.
In separate incidents, two groups of three men were seen using the foul hooking / snatching method of fishing in the River Loughor.
The method catches fish using multiple barbed hooks by pulling the fishing line out of the water as soon as any movement is felt. It results in piercing the fish in the flesh and internal organs, which can become infected and potentially infect other fish.
