82. AMERICANS ATE MORE SEAFOOD IN 2002 Seafood consumption in the United States is up 7.1 percent... the 2002 per capita consumption level of 15.6 pounds per person represents an increase of almost one pound from the 2001 level. Of the 15.6 pounds of seafood consumed per person, a record 11.0 pounds were fresh or frozen fish or shellfish, 4.3 pounds were canned seafood, and 0.3 pounds of seafood was cured. Compared to 2001 figures, this represents a 0.7 pound increase in the fresh/frozen products and 0.1 pound in the canned products. The consumption of shrimp (all preparation) achieved a record 3.7 pounds consumed per person. Canned tuna consumption increased by 0.2 pounds.

For humans to eat For pets to eat To feed to animals, including farmed fish For aquaria For recreation Fishing — Fishing continues to be a favorite pastime in the United States. In 2001, 16% of the U.S. population 16 years old and older spent an average of 16 days fishing. Comparing results of the 2001 Survey and the 1996 Survey reveals that the number of all anglers declined 3% and overall fishing expenditures fell 17% — a 16% drop in trip and a 22% drop in equipment expenditures. From 1991 to 2001, the number of all anglers declined 4% and expenditures increased 14%. Saltwater fishing increased 2% (not significant) but freshwater fishing declined by 8%.
