Fisherman

Together with other Government organisations, we are working to safeguard, support and encourage both commercial and recreational fishing in Wales.

The Welsh Government is responsible for ensuring that:

  • fish health and welfare is monitored
  • legislation, both for sea and inland fisheries, is implemented correctly in Wales 
  • Welsh fishing interests are protected and promoted
