To continue driving participation in fishing and boating and making angling more accessible to all, the Recreational Fishing & Boating Foundation (RBFF) offers the enhanced Take Me Fishing Places to Fish & Boat Map, powered by Fishbrain. The embeddable map connects visitors to your website with information about where they can find nearby bodies of water and boat ramps, filter for certain species of fish and find related points of interest such as marinas and tackle shops.

The map also showcases recent catches, provides fishing forecasts and shows which methods and gear are being used by other anglers to successfully catch specific fish in a particular body of water. Since the 2018 relaunch of the Places to Fish & Boat Map, more than 6.3 million unique visitors have used this easy-to-use tool to learn, plan, and equip for their day on the water.

Industry stakeholders are encouraged to share this feature and use the embeddable version of the map on their websites, offering added value to their site visitors.
