all anglers are welcome to the meeting especially those who fish bempton and flamborough

Yes it is an open meeting and if you fish the area it is in your interest to go as it hopes to clear up any misunderstandings from the last meeting unfortunately I cannot make the meeting

I think all us kayakers and everyone who fishes the cliffs, beaches around Bempton and Flamboro should try to attend. I'll go, anyone else want to join me?

Well said carpyken. When this was muted and we got the minutes sorted out there were a lot of posts asking when the next meeting was going to be well now you know. If you don't show up and have your say don't moan afterwards. At least at this meeting we have a chance to formulate what happens. Wait for the Marine Bill you may not get the same chance.

They arent that clever mat. Thing is Bill, by and large these people just dont understand fishing. A lot of the fishing/conservation meetings last year were organised on a wednesday night - club night. Then people would give me a hard time for not going to the meetings.

It is vitally important that anglers are well represented on this issue and also make Natural England aware that they have picked a very inconvienient time for most anglers to attend and that future meetings should be more attuned to their audience.
Should be raised and minuted.
Again I can't be there due to work commitment, although it doesn't help being landlocked in Nottinghamshire and not knowing much about local detail. I wish you all well and would encourage all those who can attend, to do so.
Cheers Optomist

I attended the meeting today. Turn out wasn't bad. The minutes should make for interesting reading. A few things I noted were

1. No take not only means no take - it means no fishing at all, infact it likely means no fishing, no bait collecting,no power boats, no kayaks, no winkling, no bass nets, no hobby potting, no commercial activity, no dog walking and possibly no walking at all. The idea is to have an area completely untouched by man (Other than the scientists and students who will study the area to see what happens).
2. An area was proposed, by anglers and commercials, south of Flamborough which was felt to be acceptable to both parties. Natural England will return to say if that area is acceptable to them in the next couple of months. It was a difficult one to call and I left feeling unsure that Natural England were happy with the proposed area.
My perception is Natural England will want an area north of Flamborough. The only thing I base that on is my own perceptions of how the meeting went.but only time will tell.
