Recreational Sea Angling Strategy

In 2012 NIFCA officers were tasked with collecting information on sea angling activities on the Northumberland coast to inform the CEFAS ‘Sea Angling 2012′ project, aimed at assessing the socio-economic importance of recreational sea angling for coastal communities throughout the British Isles.

This study highlighted the importance of sea angling within the NIFCA district and at the end of the project NIFCA developed a sea angling strategy. The key objectives of our sea angling strategy is to strengthen our relationship and open communication channels with the sea angling community as well as furthering our understanding of sea angling in the district.
