Who is NSIA?
The Northwest Sportfishing Industry Association
The Northwest Sportfishing Industry Association was founded in 1993 by a collection of sportfishing industry business leaders who understood the need for a strong voice in the local, state, regional and federal governments.
NSIA is not a sports club but an industry advocacy group for Washington and Oregon, representing the business interests that depend on the sport of fishing for their livelihoods.
Success is No Accident!
NSIA’s experience, visibility and integrity gives the sportfishing industry a unified and effective voice when policies, laws and legislation impact sportfishing interests. We are on the frontlines assuring the future of the Northwest sportfishing industry and the tens of thousands of jobs that depend on robust sportfishing opportunities. For nearly three decades, NSIA has advocated for hatcheries and increases in hatchery production while working to deliver essential safeguards for wild fish, expanding sportfishing seasons and protecting the future of all sportfishing interests across the northwest.
With a trusted, steady and consistent legislative presence, and decades of experience, NSIA will continue to fight for sportfishing and the businesses who depend on them.
“I’ve been a member of NSIA since it first formed and want you to know how proud I am of our many accomplishments. NSIA has lead the way in every major fishing issue in the Northwest; and we have done it by partnering closely with other groups, listening to member needs and working the political process in an organized and disciplined way. Help us continue to deliver by joining.”
