Mission
To increase the professionalism of their
members as they work to grow and protect sport fishing.
Membership is composed of professional guides, tournament anglers, angler educators and sport fishing/marine industry professionals who are passionate about the sport.
Many NPAA member anglers have taken their passion for sport fishing to a level where passion has evolved into a profession.
The FAF works to “Create New Anglers” by working with individuals and organizations throughout the United States to expose potential new anglers of all ages to the sport of fishing and educate them on how to catch fish and protect the resource.
We are able to do so through the use of networking and a hands-on grassroots approach that has proven to be extremely effective.
It is their opinion that participation in outdoor activities like fishing is at the core of the American way of life and essential to the future of our nation as we know it.
