About the Eden Wildfowlers Association

The Eden Wildfowlers Association is the wildfowling club serving the county of Fife in Scotland. It is based on the Eden Estuary near St Andrews.

The club was successful in having the Eden Estuary declared as a local nature reserve and wildfowling is now conducted under a permit system. This traditional sport has become better regulated as a result of the creation of the reserve. Statistical records of wildfowling visits are monitored and play a fully integrated part in the management of the reserve. In addition to their management responsibilities, wildfowlers are active in voluntary wardening and environmental improvement activities.
