Thats the main problem, and has been stated in the angling press for a long time, We as anglers spend a lot of time complaining about all of this, but when it comes to parting with a bit of cash so we can get someone to fight our corner we seem to back off, and nothing gets done. I, like you would be happy to put my money into the NFSA so they would have the funds to do more but we need to see all anglers doing the same, instead of just moaning about it and doing nothing.
At the moment we hear a lot about these proposals for a new fishing licence, Are we all that nieve to think that money raised from for this licence would go towards the betterment of our sport, "Not likely!" I say we should all get together now and show our strength in numbers by all giving that money to the NFSA so they will have the weight of a mass membership and the funds to go public and really fight our corner.
Maybe we could use our voice on this site and WSF etc, to get everyone to follow suit, Membership is £16, I spend more than that on bait for a days fishing, Is that really so much to part with, Is it not worth this pittance to do something positive for once instead of sitting on the sidelines saying "oh it`l never change, so why bother, etc etc. Nothing will change as long as we sit and do nothing.
If we do something, we are doing it for ourselves and for the sport we love, so everyone out there give now, get your friends to give, its got to be worth it to have the power to have your say heard and acted on.
How do you think the commercials have such a strong voice, there is more of us and we have a stronger one as long as we all put it forward together.
