What does ACFA mean in FISHING

What Does ACFA Do?

The organization offers a variety of services to its members, including educational programs, networking opportunities, and advocacy efforts on behalf of recreational fishermen. It also provides important fisheries research data, assists in enforcement and conservation initiatives, and supports sustainable fish populations by advocating for wise management plans.

Additionally, ACFA works closely with other stakeholders such as state agencies and other organizations that are concerned with the health of Alabama's waterways. Through these collaborations, members gain access to information about regulations and legislation that may affect their ability to fish safely in their local areas.
