Description:
Recreational fisheries information, especially catch and fishing effort data are required to support sustainable management of marine ecosystems. Information about the changing condition and use of recreational fisheries is incomplete, with many gaps in coverage through space and time. Comprehensive statistics are difficult to obtain due to seasonality of recreational fishing effort and variety of species caught. The high cost of traditional survey methods provides an incentive to explore alternative data collection strategies. Community monitoring provides an alternative and potentially cost-effective way of extending recreational fisheries data collection while raising community awareness about the health of fisheries and marine ecosystems. This study focuses on opportunities and challenges involved in community monitoring
