Abstract: The main aim of this study is to discover the behavioral intentions of Malaysian fishermen towards ICT usage in their fishing operations. This is a quantitative study in which data was collected from a total of 400 respondents from four fisheries districts in Malaysia. The results demonstrate that fishermen in Malaysia have a positive behavioral intention towards ICT usage based on the moderate mean score recorded by all seven statements used. The suggestions made are expected to provide ideas to stakeholders regarding planning effective strategies by which to embolden more fishermen to use ICT in their fishing routines.
