The research project, which will also include interviews with fishing focus groups, is set to be the most extensive study of its kind ever undertaken in the State.

Recfishwest Chief Executive Officer Andrew Rowland said, “This landmark study will provide us with invaluable insights into the diverse cast of 700,000 recreational fishers in Western Australia.”

“Given the importance of fishing to the West Aussie culture, way of life and economy, it’s important that we, and decision-makers, develop a finely tuned understanding of the fishing community’s make-up, behaviours, values and aspirations.”

“This knowledge will enable us to better advocate for fishers’ interests and ensure fisheries management is more attuned to the social values of recreational fishing.”
