PROTECT YOUR FREEDOM TO FISH!
JOIN OR RENEW NOW!
You can join the RFA and fight back, or you could just let the government, the industrial fishing fleets, environmentalists and the politicians decide for you. Since 1996, recreational fishermen have been fighting back as members of the Recreational Fishing Alliance!
RFA membership is now FREE! We are stronger together and we need all anglers to make their voices heard! Join now or renew your membership so we can fight efforts by bureaucrats and Beltway insiders who are attempting to wrest control of our oceans away from anglers like you! Like fishing, Democracy is not a spectator sport!
Now is the time to stand up and be counted. The RFA team needs your help to protect our right to fish. Join or renew your membership today!
FOR US TO TAKE ACTION, WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT.
The industry is divided, Congress has not been willing to act on Magnuson reform during the past 7 years, and the tacit support by some ‘sporting conservation’ groups for the EDF agenda has fractionalized our recreational fishing community. With this latest lawsuit, it is going to be that much tougher to defend our right to fish for Gulf red snapper in the future – unless you’re ready to fight back.
So, are you ready to stand up and fight? Is it worth $25, $50, even $100 to have a group like RFA standing defiantly upon that wall, calling it as we see it, and defending your right to fish without compromise?
Are you happy with the actions of Congress? Are you willing to let corporate shareholders and showroom environmentalists dictate the future of your fishing, and that of your children? What’s next after red snapper; black sea bass tags, summer flounder shares, recreational cod auctions?
Is a $10 or $20 donation too much to ask to send a direct message to Washington DC that we will not give up our right of public access without a fight?

WHY JOIN THE RFA?
Like it or not, politics plays a big factor in our daily lives –fisheries issues are no different! The fishing problems we face today that frustrate you as an angler are mainly political problems that require a political solution to fix. Being an active member of the RFA gives you a voice in the political process on Capitol Hill; your individual membership is our currency when walking through the door to visit a member of Congress and other key decision makers.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF JOINING?
RFA has been fighting for our freedom to fish for over 25 years; the benefit of joining RFA is peace-of-mind that someone’s looking out for you on Capitol Hill, and the grassroots power that we provide through local chapters gives you the benefit of actually participating in the political process as much or as little as you would like.
WHAT DO I GET WHEN I JOIN?
Individual political power as a member of a national team of hardcore saltwater anglers who believe in fair and open public access to our national resources.
