I only ask bcos Sea fishing is one of the most popular sports in the UK
and
im staggered to see an almost dead NG.



it is a shame as this was once a thriving group, but it became over run
with
dick-heads !!!!


Many of the people who used to post to uk.rec.fishing.* have floated away
to web-based forums like Angler's Net[0]. It's partly something that's
happening to the whole of Usenet, partly a reflection of the vulnerability
of unmoderated forums to sabotage.

No it is not dead just we are all sleeping. Web forums have however taken
over sadly me thinks.
