Are there any other ABF members on here? I joined a few months ago and have found some of members to be a full of helpful advice. The articles and rig tips are worth the joining fee alone which is as little as £1.

Hi colleydr

I would be interested in hearing how you define "going in the right direction" please?

I have just joined.
However It won't stop me joining the Barbel Society too; as from what I have read it looks like they will both have similar strengths and aims.

Perhaps they could organise a few joint evenings and projects every now and then???

Hi Keith

You never know.
I would be interested to hear though,if they are going in a different direction to existing groups as indicated by colleydr, what that is!

Hi Fred,
I don't think he meant anything in particular, just a turn of phrase I suspect, but I too will be interested in what he meant by "going in the right direction" if anything.

Fred Bonney · #8 (**permalink**) 09-03-2011, 12:21

I'm sure he didn't Keith.

It's just curiosity, if another barbel organisation has perceived fresh ideas/direction, it would be good to hear what they are.

I've found the ABF to be friendly and helpful bunch with some good ideas, the 'away days' and teach-ins to name just 2.

Why not join and take a look for yourself? Membership costs as little as £1.

Cheers

I already get that with the Barbel Society, so my £1 is already spent.
