The last comment from real andy is the bottom line, its not about the semi pro, want to be pro fishos, its about the average rec angler who has a fun time down on the river bank with the kids trying to catch a few fish. Unfortunately the government and associated control groups think that if they suck more money out of the average joe they can make us happy. BULLS..T. If you look at NSW fishing, has it become a mecca of fish and massive sizes since the licence has been brought in, not to my knowledge so how will paying money increase the wild fish stocks in this state, i think that more education to the general public and more emphasis on catch and release.
To me, most of these guys on here are not dumb thick heads, they seem very concerned about our industry, and dont need to be force fed sh.t by seemly "self centre know it all" organisations that think they know whats best for me and my family, dont treat us like sh.t and dont treat us like we need you to do what right for us cause we cant help ourselves,
I think its probably to late but hopefully a change of government next election might change the attitude at the top. What ever happens SUNFISH has lost any support from me and my friends cause i will ensure they all are informed about the support SUNFISH is giving to the fishing licence.
Scott i dont know you personally but your last comment

seems to me you are only worring about yourself and becoming a big fish in this little pond. you want to take ownership of our future, have you ever asked what all of us want, our do you just want to tell us what we need. Just a thought try asking for suggestions from average fishos and go into bat for them instead of trying to drag more money out of us and telling us its for our own good
my thoughts anyway
supa.....
The more we spread the word the less supprot they get, they might realise they dont know whats best for us fishos.
