The Charity is set up to promote marine conservation and support recreational sea angling in Scotland. It works alongside the Scottish Federation of Sea Anglers, the sport's governing body, in any conservation related issues. It also sits on the committees of The Clyde Marine Planning Partnership (CMPP) and also The Clyde 2020 project, both dealing with marine issues within the River Clyde estuary. It also continues to gather recapture data on shark species tagged through its Scottish Shark Tagging Programme (SSTP). This data, compiled over many years, was instrumental in the protection of numerous sharks in Scottish waters and indeed throughout European waters.
Objectives: 1. To advance environmental protection by leading a unified, coordinated and comprehensive approach to international, national and local conservation issues which may affect recreational sea angling in Scotland 2. To advance the welfare of Scotland's sea fish species by ensuring the interests of all species of fish (not just those of commercial value) are considered in the development of fisheries conservation and exploitation, practices and policies. 3. To build on the above to advance citizenship and community development, particularly in communities whose economies are primarily dependent on sea angling.
