How is all of this data collected? No one has EVER polled me on how many trout I caught in a year
Commercial data should be handed in whenever the commercial fisherman catches their fish. Wildlife is very strict on this. The fisherman and the seafood dock must report it. The report the fisherman hands in are called trip tickets. They have to do it for all fish they catch and also shrimp,crabs,etc.
Recreational I'm sure is just an estimate.

I'm no biologist but I find it to be a pretty big coincidence that when a "new" spot is dicovered and many anglers flock to this location, very shortly thereafter the fishing becomes sub-par.
The numbers of big fish caught in the last 5 years has plummeted. I can't say for sure what's causing it but the fishing pressure the trout receive sure can't help the situation.
