Elderly fishfan (94) performs action

utrecht - VIDEO- Toon van der Straten (94) from Utrecht is the beu. The fish fan can no longer fish safely since he lives in the home house Huis aan de Vecht. That's why he started a signature campaign to move the city to action.

At the nursing home there is an excellent fishing spot, where people can still be self-sufficient. But for overgrown fishermen like Van der Straten it's too dangerous now. Therefore, the action has now been taken to make the land more water safe, RTV Utrecht knows.

'I went with the scooter bike along the Vecht and that scooter was one day old. Then I got into a pit and I went into the water so easily. Well, there's a pike swimming with my good glasses now, 'he says.

The country must therefore be safer. 'If you lose your equilibrium, let it straight away. If they hit five wickets and make a kind of fence, we can not catch it anymore. '

So far, 120 signatures have been collected.
