The 2026 Special Report on Fishing, a partnership between the American Sportfishing Association (ASA) and the Outdoor Industry Association (OIA), is now available. The report breaks down freshwater, saltwater, and fly fishing by frequency, demographic, region, income, and age, profiles key audiences including youth, Hispanic, Black, and female anglers, examines fishing’s heavy crossover into camping, hiking, and walking, and highlights where the opportunities and the headwinds lie.
