...and, until anglers are represented by some honest folk or, better still, we are asked our opinions by ministers through angling fora etc. they will continue to be given information by people that pretend to, but, do not represent anglers whilst using public money to deceive and lie their way into positions where ministers think that they represent anglers. The purported "representation" of anglers by the Angling Trust has in this instance been nothing but deceitful and a tissue of lies and confusion (amongst themselves) from the word go. They told anglers that they were fighting for no bag limits on bass yet went behind our backs asking ministers for a two bass bag limit.

Absolutely disgraceful behaviour. They need looking into at the highest level for such misrepresentation and use of public money!
