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.

It's called hiding away, going underground. Rightly so, fishing is
socially unacceptable these days.
