About MAC

One Voice for Michigan Anglers

MAC unites individual anglers, fishing clubs, charter captains, and fishing-related businesses behind one shared mission.

Who We Are

A Statewide Coalition for Fishing

Michigan’s fishing community is as diverse as its waters — rivers, inland lakes, and the Great Lakes each carry their own traditions, challenges, and opportunities.

The Michigan Anglers Consortium brings those voices together under one unified organization dedicated to protecting, promoting, and strengthening fishing across the state.
