When I fished in England in the 60s, no one used this term.
Today, it is used by the angling press, as a term to describe certain iems of tackle - eg: "Baggin Waggler", and even by fly fishers who have caught a limit.
It really is a term from the gutter, and I am surprised that editors like Richard Lee even allow ts use in Angling Times. It is an utterly low class term of dross and puts me in the mind of the language used on those God forsaken places called soccer terraces.
Our sport is far above football for goodness sake.
Lets keep angling a little bit above the rest. We do not need to descend to the levels of the football rabble.
