membership levels are the same as last year , and we didn't have a problem then . Like I have already said , I feel that the busy banks are due the level of new members and the understandable fact that they want to fish on their new water . Organically , this enthusiasm will falter and the banks will become quieter , reducing future membership numbers will not be the answer . Proposing a hike in ticket prices in order to reduce numbers would be a huge risk for the club , as we know talk is cheap and how many of us would actually pay double next year . Not enough I would bet . As cas vegas says , the ticket is comparatively cheap so we shouldn't be surprised that it gets a bit busy .
