The Clean Angling Coalition is the only organized group of businesses, agencies and organizations that are working together to promote clean angling practices. Clean Angler is a program of the Invasive Species Action Network a non-profit organization dedicated to reducing the human-caused spread of aquatic invasive species by promoting voluntary behavior change. The Clean Angler program was created in 2007 and continues to unify diverse partners in the fight against aquatic invasive species.
The mission of the Clean Angling Coalition is to promote voluntary cleaning practices and behavior change that involves everyone in cleaning. We need help from anglers, angling businesses and organizations to participate in Inspect Clean and Dry practices. This means that we work with angling businesses like rod and wader companies, guides and outfitters, fly shops and everyone that cares about protecting our fishing resources. Inspect, Clean and Dry every time.
We see a world where not only anglers but all people who recreate on the water take precautions to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species by adopting simple Inspect, Clean and Dry practices. Together our efforts will help protect our aquatic resources for the future.
If you believe in our mission and would like to help, then join with us! Learn more about membership in the Clean Angling Coalition.
