Gone but not forgotten: tributes to angling friends

With the passing of time, so we lose fishing friends old and new along the way. This section is intended to pay tribute to anglers who have made a remarkable contribution to our sport and who have recently passed on to that ‘great river/lake/sea in the sky’.

Anglers Against Pollution: our campaign for cleaner waters

The state of our waters has been big news in recent years with pollution from sewage, plastics, agriculture and litter a major cause for concern. That's why we launched our Anglers Against Pollution campaign - to fight for cleaner rivers, lakes and coastal waters. We've already chalked up a few notable successes but we all need to do more to protect our fish, fishing and environment.

Fish Legal: fighting the law on behalf of anglers

Fish Legal use the law on behalf of anglers, clubs and fisheries to fight polluters and others who damage or threaten the water environment. They have successfully fought everyone from rogue farmers to multinational corporations on behalf of its members while in many cases the government and statutory bodies have done little or nothing. All compensation won goes to the angling clubs and fishery owners affected, so that they can restore their waters.
