Bailiffs would have no right to run people off the beaches at the moment unless they were being dangerous.

Bailiff is the old term for fishery officers - and fishery officers would have no reason to run people off a beach, unless they were breaking the bass legislation by keeping undersize bass or over the bag limit. Even then they couldn't run them off, they could issue fines or seize equipment alright, but can't force people to leave an area
County councils don't have bailiffs, maybe wardens, but again they should have no reason, or powers, to run anglers off a beach...
