you can only really have a estimate on this, quote"I read that last year over one million rod licences of all types were sold" end quote in my estimation you could safetly say theres a lot more that dont buy the rod licences a good source would be to look at Environment Agency. Angling in the UK is often quoted as the highest participant sport there are estimated to be in excess of 3 million anglers in the UK You only need a fishing licence for coarse & game fish A licence is not needed for sea fishing
fishing
Yes Very its the most popular sport in the UK :)
Football is not the most popular sport in the UK, surprisingly it's fishing
football is more watched than fishing
Fishing is very popular, but not nearly as popular as bowling. I guess it depends on where you are? Here in the UK, it's the most popular PARTICIPANT sport of all, according to official statistics!
For participating, it is angling. For watching, it is football.
Yes, football is significantly more popular than fishing in the UK. Football, being the national sport, attracts millions of fans, with widespread participation in leagues and events, while fishing, although enjoyed by many, has a more niche following. Major football events, such as the Premier League and international tournaments, generate substantial media coverage and public interest compared to fishing activities. Overall, football's cultural impact and visibility far surpass that of fishing in the UK.
I think that football is more popular since most kids at school play football and there are alot of kids ion the uk.
A few of the most popular fishing magazines are "Florida Sport Fishing," "FIshing Facts Magazine," and "Sport Fishing." All these magazines have a wide readership.
i think that possibly football is more popular than fishing
have you been to the world fishing cup? if so you will think fishing is better
