Birmingham Anglers Association

Not all BAA members want to night fish. It's a subject that appears to be very important to those that do want it but I suspect the numbers are quite small in relation to the overall number of BAA members.

I'm not suggesting that BAA shouldn't listen to the people advocating a change in rules but it is down to those people to make their voices heard. It just isn't going to be enough to chat about it on here, if you want change write to BAA, get your friends to write in. If you can the attend the AGM and put your point over in person. Those people who are activist can make things happen.

Stew, I don't think anyone was advocating just changing rules without due process. If BAA has a rule which says a vote must be taken at the AGM or by the committee (or whatever else) then that is what must happen. I do think the current system for night permits is a bit unhelpful. (maybe that is intentional).

I've nothing but respect for the bailiffs I've met round Bewdley and Arley. I wish they were around more often so I could pick their brains.
