The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is offering this grant to a CESU partner for research to estimate recreational fish harvest and angler use from inland waters. This grant is for informing current and future fisheries management, especially crucial amidst climate change impacts. A baseline estimate of angler activity will help managers identify priority issues nationwide. Due to diverse state regulations and dynamic U.S. freshwater fisheries, the project necessitates advanced modeling. This funding opportunity will serve as a regional pilot in the Southeast US, developing methodology intended for subsequent national expansion.

Additional Information
| Agency Name: | Geological Survey |
| Description: | The US Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research to generate a large-scale (nationwide) estimate of recreational fish harvest from inland waters to inform current and future fisheries management. As the climate changes, having a baseline estimate of angler use will assist managers identify priority issues to address. Given the diversity in state and local fishing regulations, along with differences and dynamics of all the recreational freshwater fisheries in the U.S., modeling will be necessary to generate any estimate of harvest and angler use. This funding opportunity will serve as a regional pilot project to estimate harvest in the Southeast US and develop methodology that can be scaled up to a national framework |
