ORPM 425 - Sport Fishing Conservation and Management

3 Credit Hours
Sport fishing continues as a driving force in outdoor recreation.  It provides anglers an intimate connection with nature, an ever-growing desire to learn more about fish ecology and hydrology, an environment that requires you to be present, a thrill when hooked up and fighting a prized fish, and a simple and meaningful way to connect with fellow anglers.  Economically, sport fishing in the US alone has a $129 billion annual output.  Students completing this course will gain a deeper understanding of sport fish recreation by exploring sport fish biology and ecology, conservation, and management; and attain skills in guiding, business and client management, and safety.
