Before we go any further, you must know that some things haven't changed - everything on SWSF still remains 100% free to everyone. Period. However, having a kind of online sea angling community is the best way I could think of both to tie the whole site together and get everyone involved.
1. In short, it opens up the main part of the site to you, the interactive side.
2. It’s absolutely free – no small print, no catches, no hidden costs.
3. SWSF is by far the largest site on the internet to focus solely on sea fishing in the south west of England.
4. It takes less than a minute to sign up. Just put in your chosen username, password, a valid email (your email will NEVER be published or forwarded to anyone, that’s a guarantee), a profile pic and some fishy details and that’s it, you’ve joined.
Among other things, as a member you will then be able to:
1. Access ALL the fishing guides, interactive mark maps, and more fishing tips and articles.
2. Access your new user menu to help you navigate through the interactive side of the site.
3. Have your own personal fishing page, like this one. Upload catch photos, list your personal bests, and keep a catch tally and more.
4. Meet other anglers with similar interests. Search for other members in different ways - ie by the area they fish, their favourite mark, preferred style of fishing etc.
5. Contact other members via Private Messaging and email (to maintain your privacy, its all done via the site)
6. Learn about the latest community additions to southwestseafishing.co.uk as they happen – don’t worry though, that doesn’t mean an endless deluge of spam into your mailbox, that’s not my bag.
7. Interact on existing areas of the site, such as article commenting etc., without having to provide your name/email etc details each time – after initial log in, that side of life is taken care of automatically.
8. Gain full access the forum. Ask questions, discuss hot topics, and post session reports, views and opinion.
9. And, saving the best bit 'till last, you'll then be part of our active, friendly network of anglers across the south west of England. Propose new or join in on forthcoming sessions, take part in our regular monthly competitions, meet plenty of really friendly and experienced anglers, learn loads and get much, much more out of your sessions.
It's all waiting for you.
