NOAA Fisheries to Host 3rd Annual Constituent Recreational Data Review On March 28, a group of recreational anglers, for-hire captains and state partners from the Atlantic and Gulf coasts and Hawaii will sit down with NOAA Fisheries Service scientists to review sportfishing catch and effort data collected in 2005. This cooperative exercise is an important groundtruthing effort that allows NOAA scientists to spot any anomalies in the data before the numbers become official. For the anglers and fishing industry representatives, it’s an opportunity to get their questions answered, ensuring they have confidence in the information that will be used to manage their recreational fisheries. The meeting is open to the public, but space is limited.
