Book excerpt: Marine recreational fishing is a popular activity enjoyed by more than 9 million Americans annually and is a driver of the American ocean-or blue-economy. To ensure that fish populations are not overexploited, the NOAA Fisheries' Marine Recreational Information Program (MRIP) monitors recreational catch through a variety of in-person, telephone, mail-in, and other surveys. NOAA Fisheries' management of recreational catch also must take into account annual catch limits (ACLs) established to prevent overfishing for all managed species in federal waters. While MRIP has worked to improve recreational catch surveys over the past decade, the surveys were never designed to meet the demands of in-season management of ACLs. In some cases, estimates of harvest have triggered accountability measures such as early season closures and reductions in future recreational ACLs, which have been a source of contention with the recreational fishing community. This report presents approaches for optimizing MRIP data and complementary data for in-season management and considers alternatives for managing recreational fisheries with ACLs to better serve both social and economic management objectives.

This book was released on 2006-07-13 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recreational fishing in the United States is an important social and economic component of many marine fisheries, with an estimated 14 million anglers making almost 82 million fishing trips in 2004. Although each individual angler typically harvests a small number of fish, collectively these sport fisheries can take a significant fraction of the yearly catch-in some cases more than commercial fisheries. For example, in 1999, recreational fishing accounted for 94% of the total catch of spotted sea trout, 76% of striped bass and sheephead, and 60 percent of king mackerel. It is important that systems used to monitor fishing catch are adequate for timely management of recreational fisheries. However, the large number of anglers and access points makes monitoring recreational fishing much more difficult than monitoring commercial fishing. This report reviews the types of survey methods used to estimate catch in recreational fisheries, including state/federal cooperative programs. The report finds that both telephone survey and onsite access components of the current monitoring systems have serious flaws in design or implementation. There are also several areas of miscommunication and mismatched criteria among designers of surveys, data collectors, and recreational fisheries. The report recommends that a comprehensive, universal sampling frame with national coverage should be established, and that improvements should be made in statistical analysis of the data collected and in the ways the data are communicated. A permanent and independent research group should be established and funded to evaluate the statistical design and adequacy of recreational fishery surveys and to guide necessary modifications or new initiatives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Increasing coastal populations, rising recreational demand, and growing conflicts with other users are adding to the challenge of managing marine recreational fisheries today. Traditional regulations - such as daily bag limits and seasonal closures - are often not enough to control fishing impacts and they tend to generate greater discontent and lower economic benefits in the angling community as they become more restrictive. This volume is the first to examine management approaches that promise to better control fishing, generate more information on fishing impacts, and give anglers more freedom to enjoy their sport."--BOOK JACKET.

This book was released on 2000-12-10 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress has promoted fisheries science for over a century and its involvement in fisheries management took a great leap forward with passage of the Fisheries Conservation and Management Act of 1976. In the past decade, Congress has requested advice from the National Research Council (NRC) on both national issues (e.g., individual fishing quotas and community development quotas) and the assessments related to specific fisheries (Northeast groundfish). This report was produced, in part, in response to another congressional request, this time related to the assessments of the summer flounder stocks along the East Coast of the United States. Following the initial request, the NRC, National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), and congressional staff agreed to broaden the study into a more comprehensive review of marine fisheries data collection, management, and use.

Book excerpt: Recreational fishing is a traditional American pastime integral to social, cultural, and economic life in coastal communities across the nation. This time-honored activity allows millions access to America's great outdoors each year, while generating billions of dollars in economic activity. Traditionally shaped by commercial forces, demographic, market, and ecological shifts are changing the nature of U.S. fisheries. Our nation's expansive coastal and ocean resources face increasing pressure as coastal populations grow, and more people pursue recreational opportunities in ecologically important marine and estuarine areas. The purpose of this book is to provide guidance for Agency consideration in its deliberations pertaining to development and maintenance of enduring and sustainable high quality saltwater recreational fisheries. This policy identifies goals and guiding principles to be integrated into NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service's (NMFS) planning, budgeting, decision-making, and activities, and includes examples of implementation concepts and strategies supported by NMFS. Moreover, this book provides a detailed overview of the operating structure of the "average" Northeast for-hire head boat and charter boat, and estimates the economic activity that for-hire businesses contribute to the Northeast's economy as measured by total employment, labor income, and sales. Lastly, this book examines challenges that have been identified with the NMFS' data collection efforts for managing marine recreational fisheries and steps the agency has taken to improve data collection and challenges that remain.

Book Synopsis Toward a Holistic Recreational Fisheries Management by : Brett Michael Johnson
Download or read book Toward a Holistic Recreational Fisheries Management written by Brett Michael Johnson and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tradicionaly recreational fishery management has focused on dynamics of individual fish populations. Attempts to improve fish populations center on manipulations of harvest or the population itself. However, outcomes of fishery management actions have been difficult to forecast. Ecological processes within fish communities and angler responses can produce unanticipated effects. This thesis documents my research on these processes in Lake Mendota to make fishery management a more holistic, predictive science. A food web manipulation began in 1987. This project used several fishery management tools to increase the biomass of piscivorus gamefish to evaluate food web manipulation as a water quality management tool. Forecasting and measuring direct and indirect effects of the manipulation were important objetives. To forecast how management would affect piscivore populations, and their consumption of prey, I combined two computer models: an age-structured population model and a bioenergetics model. This technique predicted how size, abundance, and consumption of piscivores changed with stocking rates and sire limits. A walleye stocking program that yielded 8,000 yearling/year doubled consumption demand; adding a 381-mm minimum size limit achieved another 50% increase. To predict consequences of piscivore management for prey populations, I studied predador and prey fish populations. Highley variable prey recuitment made forecasting impacts of piscivory difficult. Based on historic recruitment patterns, enhanced walleye populations could consume 65-100% of young-of-year perch biomass produced in low recruitment years. When recruitment was high walleyes consumed less than 5% of the biomass. Translating predicted piscivore consumption into perch dynamics was accomplished by incorporating prey recruitment uncertainty. Angler response to piscivore enhancements was intense. Angler effort increased four-fold and harvest rates doubled to 60% per year. As a result, forescasts of piscivore consumption demand and the effectiveness of food web manipulation dependend heavily on responses of sport anglers to piscivore populations. Hence, a better understanding of angler dynamics was required before ecological effects of fishery management actions could be predicted. I developed a predatory-prey model to study angler-piscivore interactions. This approach linked angler and fish dynamics, and provided the means to incorporate fish, anglers, and management actions within one framework.
Book Synopsis Catch Effort Sampling Strategies by : Ian G. Cowx
Download or read book Catch Effort Sampling Strategies written by Ian G. Cowx and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1991 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the second International Fisheries Symposium hosted by the Humberside International Fisheries Institute, this book draws together information on catch effort sampling techniques, showing how these are used in the broad field of inland fisheries management. Catch effort sampling is an important technique in the management of fisheries and this book covers methods used to evaluate both commercial and recreational fisheries in tropical and temperate regions, providing valuable insight into managing large freshwater fisheries. Although catch effort sampling techniques for marine fisheries have been well–documented, little information has previously been available for freshwater fisheries. The book is subdivided into five parts. 1: Temperate recreational fisheries. 2: Temperate commercial fisheries. 3: Tropical commerical fisheries. 4: Data handling and evaluation for recreational fisheries. 5: Data handling and evaluation for commercial fisheries.

Book Synopsis Red Snapper Biology in a Changing World by : Stephen T. Szedlmayer
Download or read book Red Snapper Biology in a Changing World written by Stephen T. Szedlmayer and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red Snapper Lutjanus campechanus, is an important commercial and recreational fish species and there has been much interest in maintaining its status among a variety of scientific, social and economic levels. Stocks are influenced by varying environmental conditions, changing fishing effort and efficiency, anthropogenic effects, inter- and intraspecific interactions, bycatch from other fisheries, and habitat alterations. Red Snapper Biology in a Changing World explores these changing factors and their potential effects on Red Snapper in the Eastern Atlantic region including the Gulf of Mexico and Southeastern U.S. The book will provide a better understanding of Red Snapper population fluctuations that will subsequently allow for better management decisions and more informed user groups in their efforts to maintain a sustainable fishery. It explores the responses Red Snapper have made, and are making, relative to their life history attributes such as early life history and adult ecology, especially attributes associated with population distribution and abundance, movement patterns, fish health issues and management success. A compendium of many papers presented at the 147th annual meeting of the American Fisheries Society in Tampa, Florida, this volume also includes additional research completed as a result of the symposium. It will be essential reading for fisheries scientists and managers, ichthyologists, resource and environmental managers, and policymakers who are involved with coastal fisheries.
