River Annan DSFB Fisheries Management Plan 2009 – 20145.5.2 Educate Anglers and ProprietorsTwenty years ago the idea of putting a salmon ortrout back was an anathema to most anglers.Coloured and unseasonable fish were returnedbut even then they had to be very colouredbefore catch and release was considered.Certainly on the Annan there seemed to be anumber of anglers who could not tell thedifference between a kelt and a clean Springer.About ten years ago the great debate was whether or not the fish survived beingcaught and released. These days on many rivers a great many fish are returnedand few experienced anglers doubt that the fish will survive. Other issues such asbio-security measures require the willing participation of anglers if they are towork. Anglers and proprietors, in general, care about the environment that theyfish in so it is important that the correct messages are reinforced with factualinformation without being preachy or condescending.Action5.5.2.a5.5.2.bDescriptionEnsure that all anglers and proprietors receivethe correct information to base their decisionsonOrganise informal seminars for anglers andproprietors to attend on subjects which interestthem and are important for future managementof fish stocks.
