Just wondering what is going on with CaRT, I haven't visited this forum for some time (due to a certain ego-centric forum repellent who's a$$ I nailed to a plank on certain occasionS and whom I am sure will crop up shortly) but I have emailed them this evening regarding questions on an angling forum regarding their Waterways Wanderers Scheme only to get an auto-reply stating that their inbox is full?
Dear CaRT, As both a narrowboater and an angler I am seeking some specific answers to questions regarding your Waterway Wanderers Scheme. I am currently discussing this on a prominent angling forum and my first impressions are that few, if any anglers, have even heard of this. In particular I would like to ascertain: 1) Of the £20 pounds asking fee what structure is in place to ensure re-investment in angling? 2) What percentage of this £20 will be re-invested to the direct benefit of the paying anglers? 3) How will any re-investment take place? 4) What research has taken place to support any intended re-investment? 5) Given that anglers in general appear totally unaware of this charge to fish canal waters which are not under the control of an individual club (where they would previously have enjoyed free fishing) what attempts will you be undertaking to raise their awareness? 6) How do you intend to enforce/bailiff this scheme? 7) In the event of an angler not being in the possession of a licence in a required area be found, what would be the outcome considering the lack of awareness? I would be grateful if you could reply by number as opposed to statement to ensure that everything is covered and which will assist in challenging any particular answers. Kind Regards,
