Nah.
Same old story. Ban the idiots. Not what they're misusing.
An idiot will cause problems regardless of whether you ban alcohol, braid, sacks, nuts, etc etc. To eliminate the root cause you need to get rid of the idiots themselves.

That's a lot easier on an exclusive expensive syndicate where every member is closely vetted. Not so practical in a club with 2500 members.

I disagree ... that is never going to be a realistic solution ..... Alcohol ban is easy and will have an immediate affect on many people's behaviour.

I absolutely agree buddy, but I think a club with 2500 members should have the resources to police their waters. The members should be policing them anyway.
I work harder than most in my fishing and there's nothing I like more than sitting down with a cold beer at the end of the day having done whatever I can to put myself in with a chance of catching what I'm trying to catch. To have that taken away from me because some idiot was playing up would be criminal imo.

I agree I like to have a couple of cans to relax when theres no action from the fish. However on one lake in particular every person I saw or spoke to had a can of beer in their hand. I'm not against having a can or two to celebrate a pb, but getting. s#@& faced every day is not fishing for me.

For sure mate, I'm with you, but that is imo a great example of poor management. What kind of a club lets it get to the point where everyone's wasted? Imo they need to sort the membership out, not ban a beer for the likes of you and me.

Have they banned drug taking too?
Every lake I've ever fished has had members who insist on sitting in a wigwam smoking all sorts all day and night.
Surely this is just as bad!?

No mate it's not imo, having drunk many a beer and smoked many a joint over the years I can safely say alcohol is 100 times more dangerous. Either way, as some lads have said on here, ban the idiots, they are the cause of any problems

So...Angling Podcasts....
Just to say the Nash one I listened to was the last Nash one I will be listening to. Not my cup of tea at all.
Korda's Jacko podcast was great.
Hearing how after he caught Two-Tone and just sat on the bedchair and cried...
