Anglers, your country needs you! A once in a lifetime opportunity is being offered to become part of the new Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authorities (IFCAs), which will shape the future of our inshore fisheries.

Ten IFCAs are being established around the coast of England in 2011 to promote healthy seas, champion sustainable fisheries and boost viable industry.

These committees will reform inshore fisheries management and give everyone who uses or impacts on the marine ecosystem a say in how it’s being managed, whether that’s commercial fishermen, local business owners, conservationists or recreational users of the sea.

If you can spare at least one day a month to help shape decisions in your local marine community, you could play an important role in protecting the resources along your stretch of coastline.

Put yourself in the picture.
