With fishing being a favorite activity, fishing equipment market is registering healthy growth.

Further, increasing expenditure by millions of anglers across the globe and special taxes collected on fishing tackle and motorboat fuel are significantly contributing in supporting fish recreational programs and fisheries conservation. To address the surging demand for fishing equipment, manufacturers are developing new gears and long lines with several hooks attached to the systems for catching fish. Fishing equipment market is largely characterized by brand loyalty. With majority of anglers who fish use specific brands, value of the premium quality fishing tackle brands is surging phenomenally.
