Hooked On Fishing Club Malta

Meeting with Parliamentary Secretary for Research, Innovation, Youth and Sport Hon. Chris Agius 09/10/2014

As Hooked On Fishing Club Malta was invited by Pembroke Athleta to their premises were we are always welcome, to a meeting they had with Hon. Chris Agius to show him the plans for the upgrading of their premises. We were invited to put up a stand and even to give our suggestions to Hon. Chris Agius about our sports.

We took this opportunity to talk to Hon. Chris Agius about the need of more spaces for fishing and the help to get more permits to fish closed areas. I can say that Hon. Chris Agius was very interested and helpful, now in the coming days we will be having a meeting with him to talk about important matters for our Club.

People even were interested in the Catch and Release system we practice and were very surprised about that.

Thanks goes to Pembroke Athleta for their help, for inviting us and letting us use their premises.

Peter Paul Azzopardi H.O.F.C President
