SUMMARY:Fishing for Food: Quantifying Recreational Fisheries Harvest in Wisconsin Lakes
DESCRIPTION:Recreational fisheries have high economic worth\, valued at US$190 billion globally. An important\, but underappreciated\, secondary value of recreational catch is its role as a source of food. This contribution is poorly understood due to difficulty in estimating recreational harvest at spatial scales beyond a single system\, as traditionally estimated from individual creel surveys. Here\, we address this gap using 28-year creel surveys of ~300 Wisconsin inland lakes. We develop a statistical model of recreational harvest for individual lakes and then scale-up to unsurveyed lakes (3\,769 lakes; 73% of statewide lake surface area). We generate a state-wide estimate of recreational lake harvest of ~4\,200 metric tons and an estimated annual angler consumption rate of ~1.1 kg\, nearly equal to the total estimated United States per capita freshwater fish consumption. An important ecosystem service\, recreational harvest makes significant contributions to human diets and plays an often-unheralded role in food security. \nDetails here.
