So the proposed increase in minimum Bass sizes has not now happened. It appears that the evidence put forward by BASS/NFSAin favour of the size increase has been ignored by the minister for fisheries, and the minimum size is to remain as is!
Imight have expected to read a plethora of angryoutbursts from spokespeoplefrom each of our elected, and non elected governing bodies and representative groups. Home pages of all disciplines alive andas one condemning the decision,calling for a show of defiance from anglers, a standard letter to print off, sign, and send to your local MP, a call toboycott supermarket fish counters' across the country, something, anything, to alert and mobilisethe average angler in the street andmake a show of angling unity!
But alas not, aside from the BASS website, where there is a joint statement from BASS and the NFSA there is nothing on any of the other sites that I visited.
In the long term, angling is f***ed isn't it?
