9.6m Specks in one year....


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.

Last late spring, my son and I went surf fishing at Elmer's Island, and a LWF agent stopped us and had us answer a survey.
