Vic RFL to be reviewed!

Better late than never I guess! People who currently have exemptions may lose their exemption! Not a bad thing and they still may have a reduced price. I have a concession card...disability part time work only sort of thing. In Vic I am not exempt so pay my way. In NSW' I am exempt so don't pay....m...

Re: A report about...nothing!

That was fun! Spent half the day at Numurkah targeting my elusive 1.5 metre carp that I have set as a goal...yep, I've raised the bar!!! Bait for the day was yabbies, one actually as it saw me through the day and it was released alive at the end of its tour of duty. May have been a different outcome...

Impressive!!!! The new 'XD' spinners....try them without a plastic keel. They are identical to Panther Mart...

Re: Target One Million....is it working?

It would be good if we could see a running total somewhere of the number of participants or licence holders of the “one million”. There is no exact way to determine this I would think. Not all people fishing require a license. And I have heard a rumour that the rise in licenced fishos may not be th...

Target One Million....is it working?

Hi all Whilst fisheries have a grand plan of attracting a gazillion people to fishing, I am wondering if they are achieving their goal? I have heard unnoficially that some research has pointed to the fact that the T1M campaign may not be attracting that many people to fishing. What have members here...
