This report presents the first comprehensive economic analysis of Tasmanian inland fisheries, encompassing a profile of anglers, their attitudes towards fishing experiences in inland waters, and an assessment of daily expenditure and non-market benefits enjoyed by anglers. The result highlights that the Tasmanian inland fisheries provide significant recreational opportunities for both casual anglers, who fish only occasionally in inland waters, and avid anglers, who engage in inland fishing on a weekly basis.
