sea licence

piers only

piers only

I know we spend money on our gear but the pier toll could work? Cheers Davey. Its pie in sky, but wouldnt it be good to walk onto Roker pier or any other local pier and not see the crap we have mentioned. Responsible sites like this, members could get free passes or cheap rates, people could still use piers without wading through daylight rappers and old tackle. Room for thought and a good debate lads spot on.
 
Regarding being unworkable then so is freshwater licencing really, but the EA target hot spots like tyne, coquet, wear etc even though it is law to carry a licence for fishing in yer back garden pond. Probably 90 odd percent of sea angling is done on piers and for our region it would be the likes of shields, roker, blyth etc. so the same methodology would apply by targeting these places.
 
haha

haha

I'm sure codseeker would be the ideal role model sea fisherman, and would have a life long free pier pass!!!
 
they could speak to us, find "hot spot" (piers) and take it from there, it would be a start, it`s to late for somewhere like torness, but a think something should be done.
remember lads, it`s an opinion site......!
