Given the rapid developments on trade, tariffs and commerce from the Trump administration, ASA has released our new trade and commerce webpage.

This site will serve as a central location for the most up-to-date trade information coming out of the White House that impacts the sportfishing industry.

The latest news on the trade front is that on March 7, US Customs & Border Protection released implementation guidance for the 25% tariffs on aluminum derivative products. Most notably, the new tariffs will not go into effect on fishing reels, reel parts or landing nets on March 12, but rather "on or after a date to be certified in the Federal Register by the Secretary of Commerce."
