these constant attacks on angling do nothing for the cause of banning
foxhunting etc.
the sooner you realise this the better, i know i've made several replies to
this post, but i'm in and out all the time (fishing!).
there are three million anglers in the uk which equates to one in twenty of
the population, so theres every possibility theres at least one angler in
your family if not more.
you are asking these people and their loved ones to join you on a crusade
(banning foxhunting)which will eventually lead to the demise of fishing in
the UK.
this is madness.
while many people dislike foxhunting etc, when you try to lump angling in
the same category, you are effectively producing pro-foxhunting supporters!
no self respecting angler would vote for the banning of his sport/pastime
and if it took an acceptance of foxhunting to do it, then so be it.
I for one was against foxhunting (and still am in principle) but if it leads
to the death of angling then i'm all for it.

Tally-Ho!
