Although I hope the Angling Trust will still be pressurising DEFRA/Natural England to allow Sea Anglers to use these areas completely unrestricted. It is my view that a man with a fishing rod has zero impact on his surrounding environment. Natural England has failed to protect sea anglers from the damaging aspects of commercial overfishing for decades now. It is wrong for them to now punish us further by restricting our activites in persuit of our beloved hobbey. This is to some degree very good news.
