More spin, any proof. Nothing to do with the depression or over inflated fish prices by any chance.

No sympathy from the guys who are replying to this aticle, do you think the A T and the 'speciallists' have been sussed. :rolleyes:

I did see one rotted carcus a week or so ago. Still waiting for site of dozen's more with teeth marks.

Dozens of angling clubs, fish farms and fishing lakes say they have been forced out of business because they have been unable to protect their stock from otters.

end

 

Looking forward to an A T article regarding fish eating seagulls, wondering how many rsa the A T will put up to say they rep.

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..

I'd have thought that many non-anglers sitting on the fence will decide they don't like anglers now, having heard that we apparently want to go Tarka-clubbing!

Seems to me that the A Trust have finally got their act together. They are supposed to make the case for angling, and that does not include "the public" who don't give a damn about anglers or fish welfare.

The A T have demonstrated that the rsa don't have an opinion, and don't wish them to be consulted on issues that have affected them.

By publicly calling for a cull on Otters, the Angling Trust mouth pieces have demonstrated, yet again, that they haven't got an ounce of common sense between them.

 

Chris Burt, of the Angling Trust, which represents 1.4million anglers, says, "People think otters are warm and cuddly looking... "

 

Maybe that's because they are? :rolleyes:

 

And how many anglers does the Angling Trust represent? :lol:

DRUNK DRIVERS WRECK LIVES.

 

Don't drink and drive.

Mind you, I can't see in that article where anyone is calling for a cull.

 

One line did make me laugh; "Owners of fishing lakes are resorting to desperate measures to keep the otters out, including erecting fences,..." - I'm not sure erecting a fence is really a 'desperate measure'!

"Angling Trust calls for cull of otters eating too much fish"

 

That's the headline, Steve, not a quote from any representative. There isn't a call for a cull in the body of that article.
