Blacks/Women Fishing

[nofish008]

Why is it such a white male orientated sport? Do you think other nominations feel intimidated and are scared to join?

Based on this weekend with Sam Perkins and Wendy Locker cleaning up in two of the biggest matches in the match angling calender it is us blokes that should be intimidated!

but on reflection,I can not remember ever seeing a coloured guy while I have been fishing.

We mave a woman with our group when we go to Whiteacres, she's good too and regularly beats the fellas, which is sometimes mentioned in the bar afterwards! lol
She beat her hubby last year and i gave him some stick for it after the stick he'd given me the year before.

Theres one or two i fish that im not sure about as well.??????????. As for coloureds and women fishing you generally dont see many and that should be down to the NFA to put extra effort in to promote angling in these departments.

There is no wonder there isn't a broader range of people in fishing when you see some of the bigotted opinions some anglers hold, and worse still express:
