To do this, we examined fishing involvement, motivations for fishing, and constraints to fishing. We also queried anglers’ participation in fishing tournaments, expenditures on fishing-related equipment and activities, and consumption of fish. A survey was distributed to 4,900 Minnesotans, including 800 from each of five regions and 900 women from throughout the state. After adjusting for undeliverable surveys and invalid respondents, the response rate was 52%.enReport
