Fish Legal: Action and the River Wye
MSA member, Fish Legal is a not-for-profit organisation of dedicated lawyers who use the law on behalf of anglers to fight polluters and others who damage and threaten the water environment. Fish Legal secures compensation for its members to help restore polluted waters and challenges Government and regulators when they fail to protect fisheries.
The below film, by Friction Collective and narrated by angler and actor Jim Murray, traces their history way back to 1948 and documents their work.
In particular, the new film highlights Fish Legal’s current case on the River Wye and legal action that they took on Llyn Padarn, which suffered from algal blooms for years.
