We are a not for profit organisation, recognised by the Government as the National Governing Body for angling in England, representing anglers, fighting for fish, fishing and the environment. We are a member-based organisation made up of anglers of all disciplines providing a united front to represent, grow and protect our sport. We work to get more people fishing more often and to promote the ben
efits of the sport. We lobby and fight to protect fish and fishing in both freshwater and the sea and we organise and run more competitions across coarse, game and sea than any other body. You can visit our web site at www.anglingtrust.net
