About the AAG Members

On these and following pages we’ll introduce you to members of the Anglers Action Group who have an input into the group’s operation and implementation of policies. These individuals give their time voluntarily to address issues that emerge that threaten your future in recreational fishing. By “putting a face” to the names that will feature in this newsletter, we hope that you’ll introduce yourself if the occasion arises, to inform us of information on issues you consider important to recreational fishing in NSW.
