The attached publication "Casting Around the Internet with Recfishwest" has details of some interesting fishing related articles found on the Internet.

The aim of these is to inform people of some of the things which affect recreational fishing.

The format is a heading, one or maximum two short sentences about the contents and a clickable link for you to go and read the full article for yourself.

The emphasis is on Western Australian topics - but doesn't exclude other significant or interesting articles when we find them.

The intention is to put out these publications regularly.

These will be emailed to members of Recfishwest, and to other people who register with Recfishwest.

Contact RFW recfish@recfishwest.org.au to register and receive a version with links that actually work.

Opportunities exist for private and public sector involvement in overall development ........ their words.

I can see it , I just need the money

Wont happen I know , but I can day dream on a rainy day off.
