Anglers Conservation Association

The ACA and the James family part company


Bob and Jane James and the Anglers Conservation Association jointly believe that it is in the best interests of the sport of angling that they should part company and have agreed to do so by way of mutual agreement with effect from 30 November, on the basis of the James' accepting severance terms which will remain confidential.

The ACA was founded in 1948 with the purpose of using common law to fight to protect fisheries.

Since that time, we have won in excess of two thousand cases and recovered over £2 million in damages, ALL of which is returned to the members we represent. Throughout our history, we have lost only three cases. At any one time, we typically have about fifty cases running.
