Kayak Fishing in 2050 – A New World Map?

If you’re planning to be kayak fishing in 2050 you should be prepared to go after different fish species, or head further North if you want to keep catching your favorite fish of today.

A new study found that global warming may affect the distribution of fish populations worldwide, with fish from warmer waters spreading to today’s cooler regions that are getting warmer.

According to this model, this could be true both for ocean kayak fishing and inland kayak fishing.

    Not that I think that I’ll still be around in 2050 ;) but if this theory is true it means most kayak fishermen in this country would enjoy a longer fishing season, and that makes me happy for them.

    I don’t fish, but I wouldn’t mind having warmer temperatures where I live. Must we wait till 2050?

    Apparently, there will be more fish in the north and less in the south in 2050.
