Effort and catch estimates for northern and central California marine recreational fisheries, 1981-1986

摘要

Nearly 200 species of finfish are taken by the marine recreational fishery along the northern and central California coast. This data report provides estimates of total effort, total catch, and fishery demographics for the years 1981 through 1986 for that fishery. Catch estimate data are presented by number and weight of species, by disposition of the fish caught (e.g. kept or thrown back), by type of access and fishing gear used, and by geographic zone.
