I've gone off braid. I found I was bumping off too many of the better fish due to the lack of stretch, so I've gone back to mono.

Exactly what NEW proposals the NE are making do you think are sensible then Big Jon? The banning of livebaiting full stop? The taking over of fishery management policies? Forcing waters to open up to canoeists and swimmers?
And what ones do you think are not?
I think all the proposals highlighted in the above e-mail/blog post are sensible and would actually be beneficial to the health of our rivers. Spinning it to make it sound alarming is a bit sad.
I must have missed the part where they said they would ban live baiting full stop. The issue is transfering stock between waters.
As for swimmers and canoeists, I fish regularly on waters already open to canoeists and it doesn't really cause any problems because there really aren't many people who go canoeing and the vast majoirty of those that do cause very little disturbance. Hardly anyone is going to be interested in swimming in most waters anyway. Do you honestly think they will ?
You can't seriously expect the waterways of the UK to be for our exclusive use, it's selfish and unrealistic. I think unfortunatley like too many people today, you to want to portray yourself as a victim.

FWIW I think most of what NE are proposing is reasonably sensible. I suspect many anglers feel the same and that's why there's not much anger about it.
