Angling Participation
Angling Participation Research
Developing a better understanding of angling participation is one of the most important aspects of this research. Angling is often regarded as contributing to social, economic and environmental development in the UK. However, there is surprisingly little evidence to support such claims. We want to know why people go fishing, what their participation involves, how their participation delivers personal and community benefits, and the key issues likely to affect future participation.

Please help our research by sharing your views about angling, and the role angling plays in your life. You can do this in a number of ways:- Comment about the key aspects of our research or read what other anglers have said
