American’s Attitudes
Towards Hunting, Fishing, Sport Shooting and Trapping
This study was conducted by Responsive Management and the National Shooting Sports Foundation to assess trends in Americans’ attitudes toward hunting, fishing, sport shooting, and trapping.
The survey findis 93% of Americans approve of legal recreational fishing. Like hunting, however, approval of fishing depends on the motivation: more Americans approve of fishing for food than fishing for the sport, for the challenge, or for a trophy fish.
