. @FishLegal_ criticises the EA’s 2028 River Wye assessment deadline after a decade of legal action. That would be 13 years from the binding 2015 commitment just to decide whether to seek stronger controls. The Wye needs action now. Read more: fishlegal.net/2026/09/21/fis…

After 23 years, two Judicial Reviews and a landmark Court of Appeal ruling, @FishLegal_ says the Government has still failed to produce a lawful plan to restore Yorkshire’s polluted Costa Beck. Fish Legal is now considering an exceptional third Judicial Review. This matters for failing rivers and lakes across England. Read more: endsreport.com/article/19702…

Jeremy Wade has signed. Have you? Angling Trust Ambassador Jeremy Wade is supporting the call for a change in the way our water industry is run. The petition for a referendum on bringing the water industry into public ownership has already attracted more than 200,000 signatures and was debated in Parliament yesterday. But it is still open until 1st October. For anglers, healthy rivers, lakes and seas are not optional. We need a water system that puts clean water first, not profit. If you fish, please sign the petition and share it with your fishing mates, clubs and communities. Let's see if we can get the petition over a quarter of a million. Sign and share the petition: petition.parliament.uk/petit… H₂O, not POO. #AnglersAgainstPollution

We're urging you to avoid contact with the Thames because of blue-green algae ⚠️ Blue-green algae has now been found between Sunbury Lock and Teddington Lock, near the designated bathing site, as well as a separate bloom at Richmond Lock. ℹ️ orlo.uk/tBXlh (1/2)

How to tell if a fish is in distress ⚠️ Fish need dissolved oxygen to survive, when this crashes they can go into distress. This can look like the video below where the fish is close to the surface and has rapid fin movement. The fish can also come to the surface gasping.

Great win for Fish Legal and the ICO. One of the main reasons we have any sewage in river data is that FL won a very similar case against the water companies in 2015. Same principle. You can't avoid transparency just because you are a private company. cc @Feargal_Sharkey

We were at the River Mole near Dorking, performing a fish rescue. ☎️ If you see dead or distressed fish, please report it to us on 0800 807060.

During hot weather, the amount of oxygen in water reduces, affecting fish. In Devon, #TeamEA are working hard rescuing fish and moving them to safer waters. If you see fish in distress, please call 0800 807060.
