What is the Sea Angling Diary Project?
Each year, the Sea Angling Diary Project involves sea anglers recording their fishing activity via a mobile app and online tool. These data are used, alongside other surveys, to provide an estimate of the participation levels (numbers, frequency), catches by species and area, and economic and social value of sea angling. The project has been running since 2016 and is one of the longest running research projects on sea angling in the UK. In this time it has grown from 500 participants to over 2000.
