I really can't help but think this fishing business is getting a bit silly with regards to all the agencies, bodies etc. that seem to want a stake in it.
On the one hand we have the Angling Trust, the angler sponsored voice of Angling who appear to be in ever closer union with the Environment Agency who in turn seem to be delivering less and less for our money.
Then you have Canal and River Trust who blatantly seem to ignore the efforts made by the Angling Trust in terms of enforcing the no PRN rulings by QC's.
The one thing in common, as far as I can see, is that they are all efficient in taking money but all perform poorly when it comes to sorting out these complex issues where a partisan line is required.
It's almost as if they enjoy the current status quo for the sake of scapegoating on one another
All in my most humble opinion, of course
