SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The International Billfish Angler
Survey began in 1969 and is an integral
part of the Billfish Research Program at
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration’s (NOAA) Southwest
Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC). The
survey tracks recreational angler fishing
catch and effort for billfish in the Pacific
and Indian Oceans in support of the
Pacific and Western Pacific Fishery
Management Councils, authorized
under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(MSA). The data are used by scientists
and fishery managers to assist with
assessing the status of billfish stocks.
The survey is intended for anglers
cooperating in the Billfish Program and
is entirely voluntary. This survey is
specific to recreational anglers fishing
for Istiophorid and Xiphiid billfish in
the Pacific and Indian Oceans; as such
it provides the only estimates of catch
per unit of effort for recreational billfish
fishing in those areas.
