I noticed two guys with fishing tackle today waiting for a bus.... should they have been refused travel because fishing wasn’t essential???

Going fishing with your mates isn't essential right now so I'd hope they were refused travel. The government is actively discouraging the use of public transport unless it is absolutely necessary - and with reduced bus capacity at the moment I strongly believe that should rightfully be reserved for people who have a genuine need for it (such as getting to/from work or medical appointments) and not for two mates who fancy going fishing. If you want to go fishing or visit your mates then drive or go by taxi and leave buses and other modes of public transport for essential journeys only
