Tennessee Data Request Hi Rebekah, I've run some queries on the Tennessee commercial fishing database to create the attached summaries of the harvest records. There are two files for the commercial harvest. One is for non-roe fish and the other is for roe-fish. There was not much commercial activity on Watts Bar in the last few years.

I've also attached the Tennessee Statewide Reservoir Creel Reports for 2007 and 2008 since these are the two most recent completed reports. Both Watts Bar and Chickamauga were surveyed both of these years.

Patrick Black, TWRA Fisheries Management Division 615-781-6579 ps. Please disregard the previous email sent. Our email software has the File>Attach button right next to the Send button and I'm not very coordinated.

Program Overview This document provides a summary of data collected by Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency (TWRA) personnel for the statewide reservoir angler creel survey for the 2008 calendar year. Creel surveys were used to assess the fisheries of 18 reservoirs throughout Tennessee using two basic sampling methods; roving and access point. This overview contains descriptions of: 1) survey designs, 2) sampling methodologies, and 3) analytical methods. Each description is divided into roving and access point surveys. The roving survey descriptions give a more thorough account of the methodology; access point survey descriptions only list methods that differed from roving surveys. The roving and access point creel survey designs were adopted from methods described by Malvestuto et al. (1978), Malvestuto (1996) and St. John (1992). The intention of this narrative is to provide readers with a brief overview of the statistical sampling framework.

Survey Designs Creel clerks conducted surveys on 18 reservoirs with active, on-site methods whereby anglers were interviewed either during, or immediately following, fishing trips. Fishery-dependent information collected included: angler effort, trip duration, target preferences, catch, harvest, release, demographic measures, economic values and individual status as a tournament angler. Seventeen of the reservoirs were sampled using roving creel survey designs while one of the reservoirs (Normandy) was sampled with access point creel survey methods.

(Roving Surveys)

The roving survey method used non-uniform probability, stratified random sampling to maximize sampling efficiency and minimize bias. Each reservoir was divided into a number of sections. The area of a section was originally defined by the ability of a creel clerk to complete a circuit in about 1 to 1.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />. Each area within a reservoir was assigned a sampling probability based on expected angler use within each of 12 monthly time blocks. The sum of the area probabilities equaled 1.0. The fishing day was defined as the period of time from sunrise to sunset. Fishing days were divided into two sampling periods in which the period from sunrise to sunset was divided into two roughly equal periods. Sampling periods also were assigned probabilities based on expected angler use within each month, and these summed to 1.0. Sampled days were divided into two strata (weekend days and weekday days) to homogenize the distributions of angler occurrence, assuming that anglers would be more abundant during weekend samples when a greater proportion of the angling population would be expected to have more time for recreation.

Random work schedules were created prior to the beginning of the 2008 survey year. Within any given month, a predetermined number of days was allocated to each day-type (weekend and weekday). Calendar days then were randomly chosen each month for each day-type. Within each sample day, secondary sampling units consisted of all the possible combinations of time periods (2) and lake sections. Probabilities for secondary sample units were derived by multiplying the time period probability by the lake section probability. Secondary sampling unit probabilities summed to 1.0 for any given lake. One secondary sampling unit was randomly chosen each day; that is to say, each sample day, creel clerks worked one 1/2-day period within a single, pre-defined lake section.

(Access Point Surveys)

Although the sampling methodology for the access point creel surveys differed from the roving surveys, the framework used to determine the sampling designs was basically the same. The one exception was the substitution of angler access points (boat ramps) for reservoir areas. The secondary sample units comprised all combinations of access points and time periods, and the secondary sampling unit probabilities summed to 1.0.

During each sample day, creel clerks worked one 1/2-day period at a single access point.

Sample Methodology (Roving Surveys)

Creel clerks collected data during the scheduled work periods described previously. A roving creel survey sample consisted of two parts: angler counts and angler interviews. Daily counts of anglers were taken within the sample period by making a circuit of the lake concurrently with interviews during a single circuit of the lake section within a 1/2-day sampling period (count-as-you-go method). The count-as-you-go method required that check stations be established at 1/4-way points on the route to enable clerks to stay on schedule and finish the single circuit during the allotted time. Travel direction was randomly determined by coin toss. All anglers fishing from either boats or from the shore were counted.

Creel clerks interviewed as many anglers as possible during a sample period. If there were more anglers than could be interviewed, then angling parties were systematically skipped to ensure that interviews were collected throughout the entire reservoir section in the allotted time.

Upon approaching anglers, creel clerks recorded information, which did not require interrupting fishing, including date, reservoir, sample area, fishing from the bank or a boat, and the number of anglers in the fishing party. When the clerk reached the angler or angling group, he asked if they would mind spending a few moments answering questions related to the fishing trip. If anglers did not wish to be interrupted, then the creel clerk moved on. If anglers did not mind responding to the interview, then the clerk asked how long they had been fishing, how much longer they expected to fish, what their primary target species was, what state and county they were from, the distance they traveled from home, the reason for the trip, the number of days in the trip, dollar amount of trip expenditures, and the additional amount of money they would be willing to spend if daily expenditures were to increase. The anglers were also categorized as a tournament (actively fishing in a tournament at the time of the interview) or a non-tournament angler. The creel clerk counted all fish harvested and recorded the bulk weight of HDFKKDUYHVWHGVSHFLHV$QJOHUVZHUHDOVRDVNHGKRZPDQ\RIHDFKVSHFLHVKDGEHHQUHOHDVHG(DFKUHVSRQGHQW¶V

answers were recorded on pre-printed survey forms using TWRA survey codes. Since anglers were interviewed before completing their fishing trips with roving surveys, interview data from roving surveys were based on uncompleted fishing trips.

(Access Point Surveys)

Access point surveys differed from roving creel surveys in that anglers were not interviewed until they had finished fishing and were leaving the water at an access site. Thus, interview data from access point surveys were based on competed fishing trips. During any given 1/2-day sampling period, the creel clerk waited at a boat ramp and interviewed anglers as they left using the same interview format as used for roving surveys. All anglers leaving access sites were counted and as many as possible were interviewed.

Analytical Methods Creel surveys conducted by TWRA used randomized sampling designs which, taken alone, only provide information about small portions of each reservoir fishery. To provide meaningful estimates about the populations from which the samples were drawn, the sample values must be expanded over space and time. The following narrative describes the calculations for these data expansions for any given reservoir. To assess the efficiency of the sampling effort and the variability of the estimates, relative standard errors (RSE) were calculated where possible. The RSE is the standard error (se) of an estimated value (y), expressed as a percentage of that value, or RSE = (se/y) x 100. Mathematical formulas for the following estimates were given by Malvestuto et al. (1978).

(Roving Surveys)

Fishing Effort Estimates of fishing effort were calculated using daily angler counts and the number of hours within a sample period. Thus, for any given sampling period, fishing effort measured in angler-hours (e) was calculated as 7

the product of the total angler count (c) and the number of hours assigned to the sampling period (h), or e = c(h).

This value estimates total angler-hours for a single lake section within a single time period, which must be expanded to an estimate of angler-hours for the entire lake for the whole day. This expansion is accomplished by dividing e by the probability for the secondary sampling unit (time period/lake section) worked that day. For example, if the time period probability was 0.5 and the lake section probability was 0.4, then the secondary sampling unit probability is 0.5 x 0.4, or 0.20, so an estimate of e=100 angler-hours for a given secondary unit would be expanded to 100/0.2 or 100 x 5 = 500 angler-hours for the whole lake for that entire day (E).

To derive estimates of total monthly fishing effort, means were taken across the daily values of E within each day-type stratum each month. These two daily mean values of fishing effort (one for weekends and one for weekdays) were weighted by the proportional number of those day types within each month (e.g. weekend weight

= no. weekend-days/ total days in month), and then summed to provide a mean daily estimate of fishing effort for the month. This mean daily value then was multiplied by the total number of days in the month to give total monthly effort for the entire lake (T). Intended monthly fishing effort for a given species, or species group, was computed as the proportion of interviewed anglers fishing for that group times total monthly fishing effort. So, for example, if 25% of the anglers interviewed were fishing for black bass, the monthly-intended fishing effort for black bass would be 0.25(T).

Catch Rates (CPE, HPE and RPE)

Catch-per-unit-effort or CPE = the number of fish caught per hour, which includes fish harvested plus fish released back into the water. For roving creel surveys, CPE values are based on the number of fish caught by anglers at the time of interview (uncompleted fishing trips). For the following description, release or harvest values may be substituted for catch values to derive release per angler-hour, RPE, or harvest per angler-hour, HPE.

For each interview on a given sample day, the total number of fish caught by all anglers in the fishing party (n) was divided by the total time all anglers in the party had spent fishing (f) up to the point they were interviewed. These individual party CPE values (n/f) then were averaged to provide a daily CPE. A mean was taken across the daily CPE values within each day-type stratum, and then these weekday and weekend means were weighted and summed (as described for daily fishing effort above) to give a mean daily CPE for the month. This mean daily value is representative of the month as a whole, and becomes the monthly CPE estimate for all species combined.

Catch, Harvest and Release Total daily catch for an entire reservoir (C) was calculated by multiplying the total daily effort (E) by the daily CPE estimate. The same process was applied to release and harvest data to derive total daily release (R) and total daily harvest (H). The daily total catch values were used to calculate a mean daily catch within each day-type stratum each month. The mean daily catch values for weekdays and weekends were weighted and summed across day types, as done for effort and CPE above, to derive a mean daily catch for the month. This mean daily value then was multiplied by the number of days in the month (as done for fishing effort) to estimate total monthly catch (M).

Estimates of catch for individual species were calculated from the percent composition of individual species recorded during interviews. For example, if a given species accounted for 40% of the total number of fish recorded during any given month, then the total monthly catch for that species would be 0.4(M).

Intended Species Catch Rates Catch rates (CPE, RPE and HPE) for anglers targeting certain species were calculated based on interviews of anglers who intended to catch those species. For computations, interviews from anglers intending to catch various species were grouped. Catch rates for intended species were calculated for each interview by summing the number of fish caught of that species and dividing by fishing effort for all anglers in the party. A mean CPE then was taken across interviews within intended species categories to provide the intended species catch rates.

Caution should be exercised when interpreting these data since many of the target species groups were general categories (e.g. black bass, crappie) while other valid responses were more specific (e.g. largemouth bass, smallmouth bass). Anglers were asked to be as specific as possible with regard to their target species, but often no 8

discrimination was made between individual species within general groups. For example, calculations made for black bass only include data taken from anglers who stated black bass to be their target species group. The black bass category does not include values from anglers who specified they were fishing for largemouth bass or smallmouth bass. Calculations for these species are presented within their own categories. To obtain a true estimate of effort for black bass, all categories for black bass species, including the general category, must be summed (i.e. true total black bass effort = black bass effort + largemouth bass effort + smallmouth bass effort).

The CPE estimates for intended species, however, are not additive since each estimate is based on a different value of intended fishing effort in the denominator, i.e., the fractions do not have a common denominator as they stand.

Relative Species Catch Rates Relative catch rates are the proportional catch rates of individual species within the general intended species groups. These rates were computed by multiplying the intended catch rate for a given species group by the proportion of relevant species recorded in the creel. So, for example, if the intended catch rate for crappie is 1.8 fish/h, and black crappie represented 25% of the crappie in the creel and white crappie represented the remaining 75%, then the intended rate of 1.8 was partitioned into 1.8(.25) = 0.45 for black crappie and 1.8(.75) =

1.35 for white crappie. These relations do not hold for black bass, however, because there were usually more than one black bass intended catch rate (e.g., general black bass, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, etc.), so there was no single rate to partition. The intended rates are not additive, as explained above, so the sum of the intended rates cannot serve as the single rate for black bass to be partitioned. So, the relative CPE values for black bass species were computed by generating a new total black bass catch rate by summing the monthly total catches of all black bass species in the numerator, and dividing by the sum of total monthly-intended fishing effort for all black bass in the denominator. This value then was partitioned by the proportion of each black bass species recorded in the creel. Although the species relative catch rates for black bass sum to this new total rate, the new rate is not a pure intended catch rate and thus is not reported elsewhere in the report. In summary, relative catch rates basically reflect the species composition of the catch within intended species groups, and thus do not represent true catch rates for those individual species, as do the intended rates.

Economic Values Anglers were asked to give estimates of daily trip expenditures for items, which included fuel, food, bait, lodging and guides fees. They were also asked how much additional money they would be willing to spend if GDLO\WULSFRVWVZHUHWRLQFUHDVHLQWKHIXWXUH7KLVYDOXHLVDQJOHUV¶ZLOOLQJQHVVWRSD\DERYHDFWXDOFRVWVDQG

UHSUHVHQWVDQJOHUV¶FRQVXPHUVXUSOXV&RQVXPHUVXUSOXVis equivalent to the amount of money that anglers would be willing to spend for the opportunity to fish a given resource, over-and-above what they actually have to spend.

This amount of money is the theoretical profit associated with the fishery, as if it were privately owned. This value is necessary to compute so that the profit associated with recreational fisheries in Tennessee can be compared to other more traditional industries. Money spent for trip preparation and travel to the reservoirs (fuel, food, bait, etc.) is funneled into other businesses that provide goods and services enabling anglers to go fishing; this money, in turn, employs people in these business, and is re-cycled in the local economies, generating more goods, services and profits. Both components of economic value, trip expenditures and consumer surplus, sum to provide an estimate of total angler-oriented value.

Total monthly estimates of trip expenditures and consumer surplus were computed by multiplying the median dollar values per trip by the total number of angler-trips estimated for the month. This was first done for each intended species group and then the intended species values were summed to give the total monthly economic estimates. Median trip values for the economic responses were used because frequency distributions of expenditures per trip and consumer surplus per trip were skewed to the left, such that means were generally higher than medians, and thus the more conservative median values were used in the computations.

Tournament Status Beginning in 2002, all anglers were asked if they were actively fishing in a tournament at the time of the interview. Each interview record was coded as yes (tournament fishing), or no (not tournament fishing).

Analyses involving tournament angling were restricted to those individuals targeting black basses. Black bass 9

Catch rates (CPE) were calculated for tournament anglers as well as non tournament angler. For comparison, percent of black bass effort and catch rates for by angler type were printed in tables at the end of each reservoir section in the report (Access Point Surveys)

This section only describes estimates, which differ in computation from the roving survey methods.

These differences include estimating fishing effort and catch rates. All other estimates were calculated the same way for the two survey techniques.

Fishing Effort The standard difference between roving and access point surveys with respect to derivation of fishing effort is how angler-hours for the sample period are estimated. For roving surveys as described above, sample period effort is estimated as the angler count times the number of hours in the sample period. For access point surveys, however, angler-hours for the sample period is simply the sum of angler-hours recorded from completed trip interviews at the access point. This assumes that all anglers who exited the site were interviewed. If all anglers could not be interviewed upon exit, then angler-hours for the sample period were estimated as the mean completed trip time computed from interviews, times the total number of anglers who exited the site. Once sample period effort is computed, the computational techniques for access point surveys followed those outlined above for roving surveys.

In 2008, Normandy Reservoir was sampled using the access point survey method. To maximize work time efficiency during the initial year, only the major access sites were sampled. In order to expand the daily ramp effort to lake wide totals, monthly area probabilites were estimated based on boat trailer counts that were measured from all ramps on every scheduled sample day. These probablilties were used to obtain the monthly area probability for the sampled ramp which was used to exand the local effort lake wide during the monthly time blocks. This differed from the roving surveys which had fixed probabilities prior to the sample year and were used to schedule the sampling effort.

Catch Rates Catch rates from roving surveys should be computed differently than catch rates from access point surveys. This is because catch rate data are based on uncompleted trips from roving surveys. If trip data is not complete, then it is appropriate to compute a catch rate for each interview and then take a mean of these rates within any given day to provide a daily catch rate. This is the method described above for computation of catch rates from roving surveys. This method gives each interview equal weighting regardless of how long the anglers were fishing. Equal weighting is appropriate because the final length of the trip is not known. However, if the completed trip length is known as with access point surveys, then catch rate is computed as the sum of catch across interviews (numerator) divided by the sum of effort across interviews (denominator). This provides a single total ratio estimate of CPE, which is equivalent to weighting each interview catch rate by the time spent fishing.

This weighting is appropriate because the total fishing trip is represented in the data.

Final Report Tennessee Reservoir Creel Survey 2007 Results Prepared By:

Wm. Patrick Black Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency Fisheries Management Division P. O. Box 40747 Nashville, TN 37204 April 2008

Program Overview This document provides a summary of data collected by Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency (TWRA) personnel for the statewide reservoir angler creel survey for the 2007 calendar year. Creel surveys were used to assess the fisheries of 18 reservoirs throughout Tennessee using two basic sampling methods; roving and access point. This overview contains descriptions of: 1) survey designs, 2) sampling methodologies, and 3) analytical methods. Each description is divided into roving and access point surveys. The roving survey descriptions give a more thorough account of the methodology; access point survey descriptions only list methods that differed from roving surveys. The roving and access point creel survey designs were adopted from methods described by Malvestuto et al. (1978), Malvestuto (1996) and St. John (1992). The intention of this narrative is to provide readers with a brief overview of the statistical sampling framework.

Survey Designs Creel clerks conducted surveys on 18 reservoirs with active, on-site methods whereby anglers were interviewed either during, or immediately following, fishing trips. Fishery-dependent information collected included: angler effort, trip duration, target preferences, catch, harvest, release, demographic measures, economic values and individual status as a tournament angler. Seventeen of the reservoirs were sampled using roving creel survey designs while one of the reservoirs (Woods) was sampled with access point creel survey methods.

(Roving Surveys)

The roving survey method used non-uniform probability, stratified random sampling to maximize sampling efficiency and minimize bias. Each reservoir was divided into a number of sections. The area of a section was originally defined by the ability of a creel clerk to complete a circuit in about 1 to 1.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />. Each area within a reservoir was assigned a sampling probability based on expected angler use within each of 12 monthly time blocks. The sum of the area probabilities equaled 1.0. The fishing day was defined as the period of time from sunrise to sunset. Fishing days were divided into two sampling periods in which the period from sunrise to sunset was divided into two roughly equal periods. Sampling periods also were assigned probabilities based on expected angler use within each month, and these summed to 1.0. Sampled days were divided into two strata (weekend days and weekday days) to homogenize the distributions of angler occurrence, assuming that anglers would be more abundant during weekend samples when a greater proportion of the angling population would be expected to have more time for recreation.

Random work schedules were created prior to the beginning of the 2007 survey year. Within any given month, a predetermined number of days was allocated to each day-type (weekend and weekday). Calendar days then were randomly chosen each month for each day-type. Within each sample day, secondary sampling units consisted of all the possible combinations of time periods (2) and lake sections. Probabilities for secondary sample units were derived by multiplying the time period probability by the lake section probability. Secondary sampling unit probabilities summed to 1.0 for any given lake. One secondary sampling unit was randomly chosen each day; that is to say, each sample day, creel clerks worked one 1/2-day period within a single, pre-defined lake section.

(Access Point Surveys)

Although the sampling methodology for the access point creel surveys differed from the roving surveys, the framework used to determine the sampling designs was basically the same. The one exception was the substitution of angler access points (boat ramps) for reservoir areas. The secondary sample units comprised all combinations of access points and time periods, and the secondary sampling unit probabilities summed to 1.0.

During each sample day, creel clerks worked one 1/2-day period at a single access point.

Sample Methodology (Roving Surveys)

Creel clerks collected data during the scheduled work periods described previously. A roving creel survey sample consisted of two parts: angler counts and angler interviews. Daily counts of anglers were taken within the sample period by making a circuit of the lake concurrently with interviews during a single circuit of the lake section within a 1/2-day sampling period (count-as-you-go method). The count-as-you-go method required that check stations be established at 1/4-way points on the route to enable clerks to stay on schedule and finish the single circuit during the allotted time. Travel direction was randomly determined by coin toss. All anglers fishing from either boats or from the shore were counted.

Creel clerks interviewed as many anglers as possible during a sample period. If there were more anglers than could be interviewed, then angling parties were systematically skipped to ensure that interviews were collected throughout the entire reservoir section in the allotted time.

Upon approaching anglers, creel clerks recorded information, which did not require interrupting fishing, including date, reservoir, sample area, fishing from the bank or a boat, and the number of anglers in the fishing party. When the clerk reached the angler or angling group, he asked if they would mind spending a few moments answering questions related to the fishing trip. If anglers did not wish to be interrupted, then the creel clerk moved on. If anglers did not mind responding to the interview, then the clerk asked how long they had been fishing, how much longer they expected to fish, what their primary target species was, what state and county they were from, the distance they traveled from home, the reason for the trip, the number of days in the trip, dollar amount of trip expenditures, and the additional amount of money they would be willing to spend if daily expenditures were to increase. The anglers were also categorized as a tournament (actively fishing in a tournament at the time of the interview) or a non-tournament angler. The creel clerk counted all fish harvested and recorded the bulk weight of each harvested species. Anglers were also asked how many of each species had EHHQUHOHDVHG(DFKUHVSRQGHQW¶VDQVZHUVZHUHUHFRUGHGRQSUH-printed survey forms using TWRA survey codes. Since anglers were interviewed before completing their fishing trips with roving surveys, interview data from roving surveys were based on uncompleted fishing trips.

(Access Point Surveys)

Access point surveys differed from roving creel surveys in that anglers were not interviewed until they had finished fishing and were leaving the water at an access site. Thus, interview data from access point surveys were based on competed fishing trips. During any given 1/2-day sampling period, the creel clerk waited at a boat ramp and interviewed anglers as they left using the same interview format as used for roving surveys. All anglers leaving access sites were counted and as many as possible were interviewed.

Analytical Methods Creel surveys conducted by TWRA used randomized sampling designs which, taken alone, only provide information about small portions of each reservoir fishery. To provide meaningful estimates about the populations from which the samples were drawn, the sample values must be expanded over space and time. The following narrative describes the calculations for these data expansions for any given reservoir. To assess the efficiency of the sampling effort and the variability of the estimates, relative standard errors (RSE) were calculated where possible. The RSE is the standard error (se) of an estimated value (y), expressed as a percentage of that value, or RSE = (se/y) x 100. Mathematical formulas for the following estimates were given by Malvestuto et al. (1978).

(Roving Surveys)

Fishing Effort Estimates of fishing effort were calculated using daily angler counts and the number of hours within a sample period. Thus, for any given sampling period, fishing effort measured in angler-hours (e) was calculated as the product of the total angler count (c) and the number of hours assigned to the sampling period (h), or e =

c(h). This value estimates total angler-hours for a single lake section within a single time period, which must be expanded to an estimate of angler-hours for the entire lake for the whole day. This expansion is accomplished by dividing e by the probability for the secondary sampling unit (time period/lake section) worked that day. For example, if the time period probability was 0.5 and the lake section probability was 0.4, then the secondary sampling unit probability is 0.5 x 0.4, or 0.20, so an estimate of e=100 angler-hours for a given secondary unit would be expanded to 100/0.2 or 100 x 5 = 500 angler-hours for the whole lake for that entire day (E).

To derive estimates of total monthly fishing effort, means were taken across the daily values of E within each day-type stratum each month. These two daily mean values of fishing effort (one for weekends and one for weekdays) were weighted by the proportional number of those day types within each month (e.g. weekend weight = no. weekend-days/ total days in month), and then summed to provide a mean daily estimate of fishing effort for the month. This mean daily value then was multiplied by the total number of days in the month to give total monthly effort for the entire lake (T). Intended monthly fishing effort for a given species, or species group, was computed as the proportion of interviewed anglers fishing for that group times total monthly fishing effort.

So, for example, if 25% of the anglers interviewed were fishing for black bass, the monthly-intended fishing effort for black bass would be 0.25(T).

Catch Rates (CPE, HPE and RPE)

Catch-per-unit-effort or CPE = the number of fish caught per hour, which includes fish harvested plus fish released back into the water. For roving creel surveys, CPE values are based on the number of fish caught by anglers at the time of interview (uncompleted fishing trips). For the following description, release or harvest values may be substituted for catch values to derive release per angler-hour, RPE, or harvest per angler-hour, HPE.

For each interview on a given sample day, the total number of fish caught by all anglers in the fishing party (n) was divided by the total time all anglers in the party had spent fishing (f) up to the point they were interviewed. These individual party CPE values (n/f) then were averaged to provide a daily CPE. A mean was taken across the daily CPE values within each day-type stratum, and then these weekday and weekend means were weighted and summed (as described for daily fishing effort above) to give a mean daily CPE for the month.

This mean daily value is representative of the month as a whole, and becomes the monthly CPE estimate for all species combined.

Catch, Harvest and Release Total daily catch for an entire reservoir (C) was calculated by multiplying the total daily effort (E) by the daily CPE estimate. The same process was applied to release and harvest data to derive total daily release (R) and total daily harvest (H). The daily total catch values were used to calculate a mean daily catch within each day-type stratum each month. The mean daily catch values for weekdays and weekends were weighted and summed across day types, as done for effort and CPE above, to derive a mean daily catch for the month. This mean daily value then was multiplied by the number of days in the month (as done for fishing effort) to estimate total monthly catch (M).

Estimates of catch for individual species were calculated from the percent composition of individual species recorded during interviews. For example, if a given species accounted for 40% of the total number of fish recorded during any given month, then the total monthly catch for that species would be 0.4(M).

iii

Intended Species Catch Rates Catch rates (CPE, RPE and HPE) for anglers targeting certain species were calculated based on interviews of anglers who intended to catch those species. For computations, interviews from anglers intending to catch various species were grouped. Catch rates for intended species were calculated for each interview by summing the number of fish caught of that species and dividing by fishing effort for all anglers in the party. A mean CPE then was taken across interviews within intended species categories to provide the intended species catch rates.

Caution should be exercised when interpreting these data since many of the target species groups were general categories (e.g. black bass, crappie) while other valid responses were more specific (e.g. largemouth bass, smallmouth bass). Anglers were asked to be as specific as possible with regard to their target species, but often no discrimination was made between individual species within general groups. For example, calculations made for black bass only include data taken from anglers who stated black bass to be their target species group.

The black bass category does not include values from anglers who specified they were fishing for largemouth bass or smallmouth bass. Calculations for these species are presented within their own categories. To obtain a true estimate of effort for black bass, all categories for black bass species, including the general category, must be summed (i.e. true total black bass effort = black bass effort + largemouth bass effort + smallmouth bass effort). The CPE estimates for intended species, however, are not additive since each estimate is based on a different value of intended fishing effort in the denominator, i.e., the fractions do not have a common denominator as they stand.

Relative Species Catch Rates Relative catch rates are the proportional catch rates of individual species within the general intended species groups. These rates were computed by multiplying the intended catch rate for a given species group by the proportion of relevant species recorded in the creel. So, for example, if the intended catch rate for crappie is 1.8 fish/h, and black crappie represented 25% of the crappie in the creel and white crappie represented the remaining 75%, then the intended rate of 1.8 was partitioned into 1.8(.25) = 0.45 for black crappie and 1.8(.75) =

1.35 for white crappie. These relations do not hold for black bass, however, because there were usually more than one black bass intended catch rate (e.g., general black bass, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, etc.), so there was no single rate to partition. The intended rates are not additive, as explained above, so the sum of the intended rates cannot serve as the single rate for black bass to be partitioned. So, the relative CPE values for black bass species were computed by generating a new total black bass catch rate by summing the monthly total catches of all black bass species in the numerator, and dividing by the sum of total monthly-intended fishing effort for all black bass in the denominator. This value then was partitioned by the proportion of each black bass species recorded in the creel. Although the species relative catch rates for black bass sum to this new total rate, the new rate is not a pure intended catch rate and thus is not reported elsewhere in the report. In summary, relative catch rates basically reflect the species composition of the catch within intended species groups, and thus do not represent true catch rates for those individual species, as do the intended rates.

Economic Values Anglers were asked to give estimates of daily trip expenditures for items, which included fuel, food, bait, lodging and guides fees. They were also asked how much additional money they would be willing to spend if daily trip coVWVZHUHWRLQFUHDVHLQWKHIXWXUH7KLVYDOXHLVDQJOHUV¶ZLOOLQJQHVVWRSD\DERYHDFWXDOFRVWVDQG

be willing to spend for the opportunity to fish a given resource, over-and-above what they actually have to spend. This amount of money is the theoretical profit associated with the fishery, as if it were privately owned.

This value is necessary to compute so that the profit associated with recreational fisheries in Tennessee can be compared to other more traditional industries. Money spent for trip preparation and travel to the reservoirs (fuel, food, bait, etc.) is funneled into other business that provide goods and services enabling anglers to go fishing; this money, in turn, employs people in these business, and is re-cycled in the local economies, generating more goods, services and profits. Both components of economic value, trip expenditures and consumer surplus, sum to provide an estimate of total angler-oriented value.

iv

Total monthly estimates of trip expenditures and consumer surplus were computed by multiplying the median dollar values per trip by the total number of angler-trips estimated for the month. This was first done for each intended species group and then the intended species values were summed to give the total monthly economic estimates. Median trip values for the economic responses were used because frequency distributions of expenditures per trip and consumer surplus per trip were skewed to the left, such that means were generally higher than medians, and thus the more conservative median values were used in the computations.

Tournament Status Beginning in 2002, all anglers were asked if they were actively fishing in a tournament at the time of the interview. Each interview record was coded as yes (tournament fishing), or no (not tournament fishing).

Analyses involving tournament angling were restricted to those individuals targeting black basses. Black bass Catch rates (CPE) were calculated for tournament anglers as well as non tournament angler. For comparison, percent of black bass effort and catch rates for by angler type were printed in tables at the end of each reservoir section in the report (Access Point Surveys)

This section only describes estimates, which differ in computation from the roving survey methods.

These differences include estimating fishing effort and catch rates. All other estimates were calculated the same way for the two survey techniques.

Fishing Effort The standard difference between roving and access point surveys with respect to derivation of fishing effort is how angler-hours for the sample period are estimated. For roving surveys as described above, sample period effort is estimated as the angler count times the number of hours in the sample period. For access point surveys, however, angler-hours for the sample period is simply the sum of angler-hours recorded from completed trip interviews at the access point. This assumes that all anglers who exited the site were interviewed. If all anglers could not be interviewed upon exit, then angler-hours for the sample period were estimated as the mean completed trip time computed from interviews, times the total number of anglers who exited the site. Once sample period effort is computed, the computational techniques for access point surveys followed those outlined above for roving surveys.

In 2007, Woods Reservoir was sampled using the access point survey method. To maximize work time efficiency during the initial year, only the major access sites were sampled. In order to expand the daily ramp effort to lake wide totals, monthly area probabilites were estimated based on boat trailer counts that were measured from all ramps on every scheduled sample day. These probablilties were used to obtain the monthly area probability for the sampled ramp which was used to exand the local effort lake wide during the monthly time blocks. This differed from the roving surveys which had fixed probabilities prior to the sample year and were used to schedule the sampling effort.

Catch Rates Catch rates from roving surveys should be computed differently than catch rates from access point surveys. This is because catch rate data are based on uncompleted trips from roving surveys. If trip data is not complete, then it is appropriate to compute a catch rate for each interview and then take a mean of these rates within any given day to provide a daily catch rate. This is the method described above for computation of catch rates from roving surveys. This method gives each interview equal weighting regardless of how long the anglers were fishing. Equal weighting is appropriate because the final length of the trip is not known. However, if the completed trip length is known as with access point surveys, then catch rate is computed as the sum of catch across interviews (numerator) divided by the sum of effort across interviews (denominator). This provides a single total ratio estimate of CPE, which is equivalent to weighting each interview catch rate by the time spent fishing. This weighting is appropriate because the total fishing trip is represented in the data.
