The Economic and social value of sea angling in England survey now underway.

 

The Sea Angling 2012 survey has now been launched by the Marine Management Organisation, Cefas and individual Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authorities (IFCAs).

 

The survey responses will help assess the economic value and social benefits of sea angling as well as providing information about the importance of sea angling to the nation. The research is being undertaken by Substance in partnership with Cardiff University and Newcastle University.

 

The economic and social research into sea angling will also involve face-to-face questionnaires with sea anglers in five case study sites in different regions, along with business surveys in these areas. The survey is being conducted to evaluate the local impact of sea angling on coastal communities. The study runs for all of 2012 and will report in spring 2013.
