Abstract: This survey conducts random telephone interviews of residents of coastal county households to obtain marine recreational fishing effort. These data are used along with data collected from the Access-Point Angler Intercept Survey (APAIS) to calculate bi-monthly estimates of marine recreational fishing effort. These estimates are used in the development, implementation, and monitoring of fishery management programs by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), regional fishery management councils, interstate marine fisheries commissions, and state fishery agencies.
