UK Sea Angling and Sea Fishing
RECREATIONAL SEA ANGLING. Fishing in the sea is our oldest pastime
or sport; it is mentioned in the Bible and is depicted in cave drawings
going back thousands of years when fish were part of the daily diet.
Sea
angling is good for your health, it is a sport for all seasons and
all age groups; it is enjoyed by children as well as men and women
of all ages, the able and disabled. It is a sport that can be relaxed
or competitive. It can cost just a few pounds to buy a rod and reel
to start, bait can be free if you collect your own, and fishing
is free from beaches and rocks.
Join
the growing ranks of sea anglers and enjoy the tranquillity of the
out door life; get away from the maddening crowds and enjoy the
best nature can offer; the sea breaking gently on the shore, the
graceful gannets as they dive for mackerel or the dancing terns
dipping for small surface fish. It is a sport to enjoy with others,
or to fish alone. All this can be enjoyed fishing from the shore
or miles offshore from a boat.
Sea fishing is a sport in which you set your own targets; fish
for pleasure, fish club or open matches or progress to International
status, the choice is yours. Sea fishing is recognised by Sport
England.
There is no compulsion to join a club, but it is beneficial, if
only to be covered by insurance, and you should be a personal member
of the Governing body, the National Federation of Sea Anglers; all
the information you need is on their web site
www.nfsa.org.uk. By joining,
you can help them protect the seas and the fish from exploitation.
Recreational Sea Angling is a sport for
everyone; enjoy it now.
