ALBAA Objectives

Our objectives are not just a prerequisite to form a club but are representative of the ideals we commit to as individuals and as a club

"These core values are what unite us."

a. To work together with relevant Government agencies so that access to Land Based Game fishing locations can be maintained for the quiet enjoyment of fishers throughout Australia

b. To foster and demonstrate an environmental conscience throughout Australia by adhering to a self-imposed code of conduct as well as the laws and regulations in each Australian state.

c. To facilitate the accreditation of Land Based Anglers Australia wide.

d. To mentor the young and less experienced to adopt the policies set down by the association for responsible, safe and ecologically sustainable fishing.

e. To recognise and respect the management authorities and traditional owners of the land, oceans and living resources in which fishers interact.

f. To provide ongoing support to environmental actions taken on a volunteer basis within the club.

g. To remain an impartial recreational fishery stakeholder group and agree to present fair, just and representative opinions of club members in order to achieve the above objectives. Our priorities are to be of service to all stakeholders in which we share common resources.

h. To promote safe and sustainable land based fishing within all state and commonwealth controlled lands.
