Anglers encouraged to complete survey

Anglers who have received a mailed survey about Nebraska fishing — or the text or email version — are encouraged to complete it. Their responses will help shape the decisions Nebraska Game and Parks makes about fisheries management.

Nebraska’s fisheries are constantly changing, as are its anglers. Game and Parks periodically surveys anglers to learn how their activities, opinions and desires change over time. The information is used to adjust the agency’s approaches to managing the state’s fisheries.

The comprehensive survey was sent to 10,000 randomly selected 2025 Nebraska fishing license holders. That means each survey respondent represents more than 20 other anglers in the state.

Game and Parks is joined by the Bureau of Sociological Research at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in conducting this survey.
