Where does the PFBC get its facts on youth fishing participation, attitudes, recruitment and retention?
Within the last 10 years much has been learned about these subjects. Numerous studies have been conducted as part of a national effort led by the Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation (www.RBFF.org). In addition, the Commission has conducted is own research. This information has been used to prepare fact sheets, presentations, and overall program development. New and expanded youth programs funded by the youth fishing license will be based on information and best practices gathered from these reports. Listed below are some of the key reports used by the Commission. Additional studies may be found on the RBFF website.
