Fined for fishing offences

Kenmare District Court was told yesterday how the exchanges between Jack Clifford, of Derrendarragh, Blackwater, his brother Tony Clifford, aged 66, formerly of Dereendarragh and living in Sussex, and Tony Clifford’s 31-year-old son, Tim Clifford and fisheries officers, had been “heated”.
However, matters became “more civilised” when gardaí arrived on the scene on August 16, 2015, the defence solicitor said.
