Others have probably already seen this on Facebook, how ever I thought I would post it over here as a lot of ppl say "who are VRFish, they don't represent me". Maybe we can change that, if a few of the younger ones from the forum are interested.

Have you ever wanted to be part of an organisation involved in advocating for recreational fishers in Victoria?

That would be interesting. It'd be right in the middle of exams though.

Sometime back there was a heap of criticism in some quarters about VRFish and how they didn,,t speak for a majority of rec fishers because we had no representation.Russell Conway subsequently explained the process of getting representation but as ever, there was a lot of negative stuff.
Here is a great opportunity for some to put their toe in the water and have a real go instead of being part of the "Aorta" tribe.
