Proposal for Return to Angling

The Board of Angling Scotland Ltd has been discussing when best to present the case to the Scottish Government to support a return of angling in some form.

We engaged with Marine Scotland in the very early stages of the crisis and have recently been invited to contribute more substantially as part of work that sportscotland is doing to facilitate some kind of phased return to sporting activity.

We have submitted a letter and documentation and proposal for how we return to Angling in Scotland both documents are linked below.
