Fishing' popular activity
for many Oklahomans
Nearly 42 percent of Oklaho-
mans have been fishing in the
past two years, according to a
recent survey by Oklahoma State
University.
The survey bolsters the fact that
fishing and wildlife conservation
are important to most Oklahomans.
In fact, last year when "Sports
Illustrated" magazine asked their
readers their favorite sport to play,
fishing came in number one ahead
of all others, including golf, base-
ball and swimming.
The surveys are supported by
an unrelated report on fishing sta-
tistics published by the American
Sportfishing Associati00. The

Pastime," shows how fishing
remains a popular activity that
not only provides a relaxing pas-
.time but also creates a significant
economic impact.
Here in Oklahoma, fishing
statistics support the national
trend.
According to the report, more
than 44 million Americans fish
- 774,254 of which fished in
Oklahoma.
The report shows that an impres-
sive $484 million in retail sales
were generated by Oklahoma's
anglers, which rippled through
the economy to generate $992
report, "Sportfishing in erica: million in economic output for
The Oklahoma fishing indus-
try supports over 11,000 jobs and
those workers earned $245 mil-
lion in salaries and wages.
Fishing-related purchases in
Oklahoma generated $27.5 mil-
lion in state tax revenues and $25
million in federal income tax.
Fishing also greatly supports
our nation's conservation efforts
through the Sport Fish Restora-
tion Program. Special federal
taxes on fishing gear and motor-
boat fuels channel hundreds
of millions of anglers' dollars
toward state fish and wildlife
conservation and recreation
programs each year.
The American Sporffishing
Association's analysis is based
on data from the National Survey
of Fishing, Hunting and Wildlife-
Associated Recreation, con-
ducted every five years on behalf
of the International Association
of Fish and Wildlife Agencies.
The survey data is collected by
the Census Bureau and complied
by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service. The full report is avail-
able online from the American
Sportfishing Association at
www.asafishing.org/content/
statistics/economic.
The 2004 Oklahoma Social
Indicator Survey of adults, age
18 and over, was conducted by
the Bureau for Social Research
(BSR) at Oklahoma State Uni-
versity. A total of 1,221 telephone
interviews of randomly selected
Oklahoma residents was com-
pleted in November 2004.
