The Angling Research Library is a unique resource that allows you to access a wide range of angling-related research publications. As part of our research project we have collated a large number of reports and articles and, where possible, we are making them available here or providing details. We have also provided a searchable bibliography; a facility to search papers by their content; and as a separate commission wrote a summary of angling social research for the Environment Agency which is available here for the first time.
