The fishing industry is a crucial means of reducing poverty and providing jobs for people living in coastal communities, but historically, there have been barriers to accessing markets. This study uses a cross-sectional survey to examine the factors that influence multiple sources of income, market involvement, and the level of market involvement for fishers in the Dawhenya reservoir, Ghana. Most households engaged in fishing only and were net sellers. The level of market involvement for net sellers or buyers is affected by declining fish catches and lack of inputs, while the intensity of market involvement is influenced by factors such as age, the number of dependents, access to infrastructure, limitations on inputs, availability of credit, and declining catches
