Do you sea fish? fly fish?coarse fish? fish every day or only on holiday? wish you could fish more? only for food? or catch and release?
If so, then we need YOU.....
Hi all,
my new job has me involved in a big UK wide angling research project and as part of it we have launched an angling participation survey.
I'm trying to get as many anglers to complete it as possible- and in particular I though downsizers would be a good place to catch a few anglers who may not be part of organised clubs or reachable though organisations such as the Angling Trust.- and of course those ever elusive sea anglers.
Please spare a few minutes to complete the survey- even if you only fish every now and then, this will be valuable data.
You can find out about the project at http://www.anglingresearch.org.uk/
and the link to the survey here
And just ask me any questions you have

Natty, check the spelling in the link in your first post - should it be 'research' |

just lucky- I stormed the interview- i think they weren't expecting a girl to be a keen fisher woman and I loved the idea of teh job- i mainly deal with the young people and angling side of teh project- troubled teens and all that |

Right attitude to fishing, wrong country for a British survey  |

opps yeah- should have said- it related to people fishing UK waters- you can be a non UK national as long as you have fished in Uk this last year really, but thanks for doing it! |
