Maar niet alleen ECHO.

Carp Angling Conservation Forum

The newly formed Carp Angling Conservation Forum met for the first time on Sunday the 9th June at the Lechlade Trout Farm adjacent to the Carp Society's Horseshoe Lake. The forum has been formed by the Carp Society to primarily consider the issues and debate surrounding the illegal importation and illegal movement of fish into England & Wales. Future agenda's will serve to highlight other activities deemed to be a threat to carp angling and ultimately involve those who are able to positively influence the outcome in favour of the fish and the angler.

Those organisations currently participating are The Carp Society, English Carp Heritage Organisation, Specialist Angling Alliance, Institute of Fisheries Management, British Carp Study Group, Ornamental Aquatic Trade Association, Environment Agency and Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science.

Considerable areas of agreement were reached and further announcements will follow as the momentum to protect carp angling gathers pace. The key point from the forum is a united opposition to all illegal importation, illegal movement and illegal stocking of carp and other species into England & Wales. A commitment was made to meet the following objectives:

1. United in opposition to all illegal imports, illegal movements and illegal stocking of carp and other fish species into England & Wales.
2. Recommend exclusively the stocking of health certified fish under all circumstances.
3. Provide best practice advice to fishery owners and anglers to mitigate the risks associated with introducing fish into new and already populated waters.
4. Encourage the implementation and effective use of existing legislation towards enforcing fish movement and stocking policy to deter mal-practice now and in the future.
5. Promote the adoption of existing codes of conduct through, education, business, professional organisations, angling bodies and the angling public.
6. Share information between the participating organisations and involve like-minded organisations based abroad.
7. Encourage any information concerning illegal imports to be passed to CEFAS (01305 206681) or, in the case of illegal fish movements within England & Wales, the EA Emergency Hotline (0800 80 70 60
