On January 1, 2016, a new era began in Hungarian sport fishing. Commercial fishing in natural waters ceased, and by 2030 the Hungarian National Fishermen's Association (MOHOSZ), which had been significantly transformed and expanded in its tasks, became the lessee of most water areas. From 2019 the transformation of the central organization of MOHOSZ was completed as well, because besides the activities of the National Sports Association, the Association of Fishermen and Fishermen became the public service organization for the fulfillment of public tasks. while simultaneously securing resources.

After successful completion of the public procurement procedures and subsequent contracting, the transfer of technical tools to support fisheries surveillance and the uniforms of fishermen have already taken place, and there are several ongoing processes to support waterfront environment and water quality improvement and support for it. And of course, the most spectacular of the technical tools is the uniform appearance, the special equipment and the modern service SUVs and motor boats. The first 20 off-road vehicles were solemnly handed over on the Danube side of the Budapest Association of Fishing Associations on May 4, 2017, followed by another 15 on October 25, 2018.
Today, at the traditional site, another 22 off-road vehicles have been handed over to the fishing association and 17 other successful fishing organizations, and they will appear tomorrow on the shores of Lake Balaton, the Danube and the Tisza and other significant fishing waters used by the winners. Based on the supply contract concluded after the successful procurement procedure, the net purchase price of the whole quota is HUF 165.88 million, which means HUF 7.54 million per car. From this sum, again, state-of-the-art vehicles, including three sets of wheel-mounted tires, a lining, a drawbar and a heavy-duty winch, were provided with the same inscription.

During the solemn presentation held in the presence of representatives of the Ministry of Agriculture, the Prime Minister's Office, the National Police Headquarters, the State Fisheries Service and the receiving fishing organizations, all cooperating partners appreciated the success and a community-based approach to the environment.
Dr. Zsolt Nyitrai, Prime Minister's Office of the Prime Minister's Office for Strategic Social Relations, said in his greeting that more than half a million anglers could count on the Hungarian Government in the future.
