There was an option of not allowing EU citizens to work for a few years before it became open-house,Blair declined,he is long going to be remembered as the hand that opened the tool box,that held the hammer,that drove the nails into into the coffin of what was once known as Great Britain R.I.P

Pops,thats why your classed as a citizen,and we are still termed subjects,I think you have a little more latitude stateside,your liberties havent been eroded as much as ours,as Confucius said "An oppressive government is more to be feared than a tiger" The best defense against usurpatory government is an assertive citizenry -

We never fish with nets here,its illegal in freshwater UK,but it depends what your fishing for,what type of water?Cast & Gill are the commonest,so I have been told Edit......Dont get yourself a 16 foot cast,10 is perfect,wait till your comfortable with that then decide if you want to super-size,like I said,depends what your after and the water your fishing,ideal for collecting sprat,sandeels etc along the shore.

I just read the exchange twixt Sarah&Mark(look how well the names mesh,like that missing jigsaw piece )and remembered a small boy and temporarily unrequited love :kiss:

I certainly could source better stock,but I dont think theres such a market here for cast-nets of obscure fishing nets of that ilk,its a niche they have probably filled,albeit shoddily
-
Whatever the situation dictates,type of water,quarry species etc,I am always splashing out on new rods
