Larry , totally agree with what your saying . When i was at school we had a couple of days in summer were two teachers would take 20 of us fishing to a venue for the day , we even went on the trent and that was 80 miles away . It just cant happen nowadays , its 1 teacher to 3 kids and then their worried that the kid will trip up and a massive claim will follow . Its a fact, that if instilled at a young age ,fishing teaches you to respect your surroundings and belongings and have respect for people . As far as I'm concerned, its the government who are to blame for going soft on crime and they could do more to introduce it in schools
