Catherine is undertaking a Masters Degree at the University of London.

She writes:

"I am looking at the future of the UK's inshore waters, particularly in reference to proposals recently by the NFSA that all fishing in the first 1nm be restricted to hand-lining and angling only."

It would be useful to her research if as many as SACN's readers as possible would download her questionnaire, complete it, and email the completed form back to her by the end of August.  (Her email address is shown at the end of the document).

Catherine has promised SACN a completed copy of her thesis and research such as this is often useful in taking forward proposals to develop the Recreational Sea Angling sector.

As well as completing the questionnaire yourself (it doesn't take long), why not try and get as many other anglers that you know to do the same?
