| BAA Live-bait ban I wud strongly urge all members to write or email BAA to show our disgust with this latest hypocrisy - angling has more than enough external issues to contend with - perhaps we should campaign for a keepnet ban as well! That wud certainly strike a blow right to the hearts of most BAA members!  Roy __________________ Cormorants & Otters - dead cute - CUTER DEAD!!!     |

| Re: BAA Live-bait ban More politics why can't they leave things be? If you don't like live baiting it's simple don't use the method. There is no need for a ban!!!! tj |

| Re: BAA Live-bait ban I totally agree with you Roy we have enough hassles anyway without the BAA playing into the hands of the anti's "look even the anglers think its cruel!" __________________ Pike Anglers Club of Great Britain, Region 13 Devon.

| Re: BAA Live-bait ban this ban is news to me! is it in force or on the drawing board? the way i see it is, if a pike isn't hungry it wont take the live bait. by live baiting arent u just providing a natural bait that the pike was looking for in the first place? it doesnt interfer with nature nore does it interfere with stock levels. its just toffee nosed anglers thinking there better than the rest of us. would they like it if moggot and worm was banned? well thats a form of live baiting, isnt it? or even hooks if they think harming fish is crule! gonna stop now b4 i get mad. ge  rge __________________ I once gave up fishing.

| Re: BAA Live-bait ban It is already in force. The BAA announced it without consultation with it's members or anybody else who may be affected and certainly without considering the bigger picture. __________________ Pike Anglers Club of Great Britain, Region 13 Devon.

| Re: BAA Live-bait ban At the moment the ban only applies to BAA waters (which aren't all in Birmingham by the way) but they are encouraging other clubs nationwide to follow suit __________________ Pike Anglers Club of Great Britain, Region 13 Devon.

| Re: BAA Live-bait ban Banned live baiting AND Lures/spinners? That's not an angling association, that's an anti angling association! __________________ I am in shape. ROUND is a shape! |
