That's why we launched our Anglers Against Pollution campaign - to fight for cleaner rivers, lakes and coastal waters.

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.
