Special Publication 25 Nearly all fisheries agencies survey anglers and their catches. While methods vary from simple counts to complex sampling designs, the tension between information needs and fiscal realities has encouraged efficiency in design and execution. This publication is the first consolidated techniques manual for angler surveys. This comprehensive, integrated book covers all survey elements from planning to reporting, the principles of statistically valid sampling and crafting good questionnaires, selecting the right type of survey, catch and effort estimating, economic and social analysis, and biological uses of survey data. The importance of good survey design, proper sampling methods, and meticulous field technique is emphasized throughout this peer-reviewed book. Numerous examples clarify sampling and estimation procedures. This book is intended for agency survey managers, professors, students, biologists, economists, sociologists, and consultants.

This book on angler survey methods will undoubtedly be used as a manual for future surveys of this kind in North America. It may prove to be of even greater value in other countries where fisheries management traditionally is based on other kinds of information or is less developed. -- Biometrics, March 1995
This work is destined to become indispensable to survey administrators and others dealing with this topic. -- Copeia, 1994
