I WAS amused by the letter from an anonymous angler, printed on your letters page on September 13 who is afraid of further legislation when the cruel pastime of hunting with dogs is finally banned.
If you follow his logic then no humane laws would ever be passed and we would still have bear baiting and cock fighting (perhaps A Tench would enjoy these?). At any rate as he seems to be convinced that the League Against Cruel Sports will object to fishing presumably he believes fishing to be cruel too.
