In 2001 57% of all anglers fished from a boat at least one day. Out of 34.1 million total Americans 16 years old or older who fished, 19.5 million fished from a boat. Saltwater anglers were more prone to fish from a boat than freshwater anglers, with 69% of all saltwater anglers using a boat while fishing. Great Lakes anglers were not far behind, with 65% of all Great Lakes anglers fishing from a boat. In freshwater fishing, excluding the Great Lakes, 53% of all anglers used a boat. 46% of total fishing days were spent on a boat. This percent is less than the 57% of anglers who used a boat either because people who fish from the shore fish more per capita than people who fish from a boat, or because people who fish from a boat also fish from the shore, or because of both. 61% of saltwater fishing days and 52% of Great Lakes fishing days were from a boat. 43% of freshwater fishing days, excluding the Great Lakes, were from a boat. The trip-related expenditures of boaters who fished were a significant part of total triprelated expenditures by anglers, as one would expect based on the above. $2.6 billion were spent on boating costs, 18% of all trip-related expenditures for angling. 8.3 million anglers spent money on these trip-related boating costs (perhaps these anglers are the principal operators of the boats, and the remaining anglers, 11.2 million, are family members and others along for the ride).
