Clean Angling Coalition: The mission of the Clean Angling Coalition is to promote voluntary cleaning practices and behavior change that involves everyone in cleaning. We need help from anglers, angling businesses and organizations to participate in Inspect Clean and Dry practices. This means that we work with angling businesses like rod and wader companies, guides and outfitters, fly shops and everyone that cares about protecting our fishing resources. Inspect, Clean and Dry every time.
