In Europe, currently, the UK, France, and Russia are the hardest-hit countries by the COVID-19 outbreak. The region is estimated to suffer an economic hit due to the lack of revenue from various industries subjected to disruption in the supply chain. The disruptions in the supply chain, the shutdown of manufacturing units, and labor shortages have had a negative impact on the fishing equipment market. Countries such as Poland, France, Germany, and the UK had restrictions on recreational fishing during the lockdowns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which negatively impacted the demand for fishing equipment. In comparison, Denmark encouraged people to take part in recreational fishing, which increased the sales of mandatory licenses for recreational fishing in the country, leading to a positive impact on the demand for fishing equipment. In the Netherlands, outdoor activities such as recreational fishing were allowed during the pandemic. After the upliftment of the lockdown, most countries across Europe lifted the restrictions on recreational fishing, which led to increased fishing activities, thereby positively impacting the demand for fishing equipment.

With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the Europe fishing equipment market. The Europe fishing equipment market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
