Abstract: In cooperation with the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (MDMF), the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Marine Recreational Information Program (MRIP) would like to collect economic valuation information from the directory frame of licensed marine recreational anglers in Massachusetts in 2012. The objective of the study will be to test the effectiveness of alternative data collection methods for collecting recreational fishing data and to evaluate the reliability of stated preference (SP) compared with behavioral models that use information on the actual choices made by recreational anglers.
