Cheers Mark, I guess that sometimes we all read a little more into comments on things we feel passionately about.

From the first post , about fishing , fishing politics , and a system of catching poachers . How about a thread on the social board about politics , unemployment , and getting people in a job ?. The program "skint " winds me up to the point of throwing my shoe at the telly ( imprisonable offence...

List, Mind if I cut and post that on the PAC forum?

Ben the eel parasite theory belongs in area 51. It’s a fob put about by researchers paid by the elver fishers. Eel decline is due to massive over fishing by the Sustainable Eel Group members both elver and silver and the changing currents in the North Atlantic. This year the currents have...

Ian, I use 30lb powerpro and I treat it with Grangers Fabsil. The line sits on top of the surface, picks up beautifully and virtually controls itself in an upstream breeze. Use untreated in a wind coming on to your bank or better still if you’re a mortal like me use a weight. Crooky has a good...

Not 100% sure of this Richard but I believe these guys had all their gear confiscated. Having seen pics of the 2 PAC lads in question with the gill net I am really hoping that gear included the boat and engine outfit that must have been used to set that net. If it did that will smart. You...

As some may see this as trying to relight an old fire. Eric Edwards posted this on the PAC facebook page. These guys were nicked because the PAC members who reported them did it right. They got the incident number and left the gill net in the river giving the EA, the likes of Chris Ponsford...

I used to think the same way as Crooky, but the internet angler; who is a selfish son of a whatnot; does not return the favour. So like most these days I share information with a few likeminded friends. Most of the clubs I belong to have publicity bans anyway,

Roger. You didnt see a Barbel back then did you?

Stevo I like the place, lots of realy nice people on here. I let it alone untill it got personal!

Damian, Sorry didn’t realise you were the BFW arbiter of Vile Shall I email you my thoughts for a purity check in future. PS how’s your mate Frampton, back bleeding?

Thank god for that, perhaps now we can get back to patting Keith on the back and discussing the finer points. Anyone know the pitch of a standard landing net handle screw thread.

Just reread my post Graham and it did look as the last comment was aimed at you sorry it definitely was not. I didn't think you had made that kind of comment either.

Graham yes of course, if that’s the best you can do, a car reg numbers build, hair colour clothing would be better. Also you must get an incident number. It is just plain wrong though to make statements like all EE’s are poachers.

Drenan for me as well. Mine is a few years old now, a mark one, love it to bits. There are rods that will do any of the half dozen jobs it does for me a little better but none that will beat it on two counts, it is a true jack of all trades.

It’s a very free forum Paul If one person’s opinion clouds your judgement so heavily then please don’t go back again. My personal opinion is it aint the word that’s bigoted, it’s the thought behind it. I think I may be making a very good mate uncomfortable on the issue of...

Dave.. coss it pulled him of course

Thanks for keeping an open mind Dave, Just for your information, initially three from here were banned and went on to set the site up, one or two after plus a few like me who posted regularly but were alarmed by what we saw as something that was beginning to become clique ridden and elitist. I...

Dave The reason I get a bit hot under the collar about this is I am just old enough to remember two young men, English through and through beat the brown stuff out of my 55 year old Granddad. I was five at the time and I actually wet myself when I saw him about a week later the day he was let...
