Is this the same PETA that kills unwanted animals(pets), rather than rehoming them?

The trouble is Wendy we are not given a fair chance to put our views across. When i last heard a debate on the radio about fishing the presenter (his name escapes me but i,m sure it was 5live)anyone who put up a good pro fishing arguement was cut off.
I've said it before,we need a pro fishing lobby in westminster lobbying government continuely. Paid for by the angling bodies who should put aside there differences at least for this one thing and donate an agreed percentage of there revenue. That way we would have a voice. Until that happens we just as well carry on peeing in the wind. Wide open to attack by the likes of peta who are more organised then we are.

Whilst I was fishing today, a couple stopped to watch me land a bream.
They said "that's a big one what is it?" A bream I replied, then came the normal question "are you going to eat it?"
"No, we put them straight back into the water to fight another day".
How will we ever get our point of view across, if that's what the general public think about fishing?

To be honest Steve, I think fishing would be more understandable to lots of people if we did take our fish home and eat them.That is why I am opposed to any measure which denies the ordinary angler the right to take the odd fish for the table.By making catch and release compulsory , the only justification for angling is pleasure whcih plays into PETAs hands.

It seems that it is not only the general public that will not listen. Not you Nigel (o

At the risk of repeating myself, Angling needs a spokeman to monitor media stories and defend our sport.
That person or executive group also needs to alert a gullible public to the true agenda of PETA. Fishing is just one strand of their attacks on anyone who uses animals for sport. Those whose sports involve horses, dogs and birds are also targets, and people ought to realise this is rich organisation with a wide ranging remit.
Though I cannot prove it I would not be suprised if PETA money contributed to the current crop of Hollywood animation films designed to portray farm animals and cows as cuddly and charming, with almost human feelings and personalities. I am sure I read somwhere they helped fund "Saving Nemo" so it would make sense. As veggans and Veggies, they are all about changing peoples perceptions towards animals.
Never mind Baz taking his gloves off, we need a fighting fund and as Keith Arthur says the ACA are the body to fight on our behalf.

Go for it Baz LOL!!
as for the ACA they are about as much use as bouncers in Mothercare!!
Countryside Alliance have the political clout - but they could well ask the question - where were coarse anglers when there was the hunting debate?
ANSWER - bloody nowhere - well, heads up asses as usual !!

Bunch of morons if you ask me.....as it already said in the artical, fish brains struture is designed to be different to other animals pain structure in the brain.....hence they don't feel pain as we do....what about ALL those people who treat their pets like it was a human...now that I class as real animal cruelty, as it is proven to disstress and disturb the animals

Countryside Alliance did a great job with the argument against Fox hunting didn't they?
Afraid they are all perceived as Tally ho tweed bedecked hoorah henry's, and Joe Public in the cities, rightly or wrongly couldn't identify with them.
Many anglers also find hare coarsing and fox hunting somewhat distastful,which is why angling universally failed to align themselves with the hunting lobby even though most of us knew shooting and angling would be the next targets.
As for the ACA being useless, there are a plenty of stretches of river that would be fishless but for the work of the ACA.
