Title: AFSC/REFM: Alaska Saltwater Sport Fishing Charter Business Survey
Short Name: AFSC/REFM: Alaska Saltwater Sport Fishing Charter Business Survey
Status: In Work
Abstract:

The purpose of this project was to collect cost, earning, and employment information from the Alaska saltwater sport fishing charter business sector during the period leading up to the implementation of the Halibut Catch Sharing Plan (CSP). The survey collected data for the 2011, 2012, and 2013 fishing seasons.

Purpose:

In spite of regulatory changes to Alaskas sport fishery over the last decade, information about how changes in fisheries management tools affect sport fishery anglers and charter businesses has generally been limited to date. While some information on the Alaska charter boat sector has been collected through the State of Alaskas Statewide Harvest Survey and Saltwater Charter logbook program, the accompanying data has generally been limited to information about angler participation and harvest and amount of charter activities. Information on vessel and crew characteristics, services offered to clients, and information detailing cost and earnings have generally not been available for study. To address this gap in information, the Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC) of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) developed and implemented the Alaska Saltwater Sport Fishing Charter Business Survey to collect baseline economic information about the charter fisheries sector for use in understanding the economics of the charter sector and evaluating the effects of regulatory changes on the sector.
