LegaSea is proud how saltwater-loving Kiwis say that "more fish in the water" is really bloody important.

LegaSea - Our Story...
How many of us have had long discussions with our friends and families about the way things have changed over time, the differences in fish & shellfish abundance, the declining health of our coastlines and waterways?
How many of us are worried about these things?
How many of us feel like the foundation of our treasured Kiwi lifestyle in New Zealand is constantly undervalued and threatened by economic progress?
The New Zealand Sport Fishing Council has heard these concerns time and time again, not just from recreational fishers, but from all Kiwis – tangata whenua, environmentalists, families, and general everyday people.
And the Council knew very well that these concerns were valid – after all, the Council has invested significant sums of money into expensive Advocacy projects that are critical to representing the rights of New Zealanders to fish and a clean marine environment (see the Kahawai Legal Challenge, the People’s Submission, Vision 2030, Fisheries Management Processes).
Surely there had to be a better way, an easier & more sustainable way to protect the Kiwi identity & lifestyle that depends on abundant fisheries and a clean marine environment. A classically simple Kiwi way to create a good legacy for future generations…
And so the idea for LegaSea was born.
LegaSea is a new and dynamic way to make sure that the Vision of “more fish in the water & a healthy marine environment” isn’t just a vision – but a REALITY.
Given half a chance most Kiwis want to invest in this Vision – we are all islanders and abundant fisheries and healthy marine environments contribute to our wellbeing. It’s something that we all have in common.
So the purpose of LegaSea is to make sure that the hard stuff that is needed to make the Vision a reality doesn’t rely on the generosity of just a few deep pockets. This money goes towards ADVOCACY, RESEARCH, EDUCATION, and working TOGETHER with groups who share the same vision.
If we each give a little - $20 bucks little – then together we are able to collectively make a massive difference.
And isn’t that just the perfectly simple, no.8 wire approach to solving the problem?
We think so.
