PACIFIC-INDIAN OCEAN INTERNATIONAL BILLFISH ANGLING SURVEY
FOR 2011 ONLY
BILLFISH ANGLERS: This survey to determine the trend in recreational fishing in the Pacific Ocean has been conducted annually since 1969.
Your response will enable us to determine average catch rates of specific billfish in the areas indicated on the other side of this card. Accurate
records are needed to determine the effect heavy fishing on billfish resources is having on the anglers catch. Response is voluntary.
For each angler that fished for billfish in 2011 we request that you individually, and as accurately as possible, indicate the number of days you
fished for billfish during the calendar year of 2011 and the number of billfish caught by species. Fish tagged and/or released are counted as
caught. If you fished but were unsuccessful, it is still important to indicate the number of actual days fished.
The U.S. Government requires that all mailing lists be revised annually. If you did not fish but would like to remain on the mailing list, complete the
address portion at the bottom of this card and return. If you do not return the card, your name will be removed from our mailing list. Your
cooperation is requested, and by completing the address portion you will be advised on the survey results. Please return as soon as possible.
Postage is not required if mailed in the USA.
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 5 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources,
gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other suggestions for
reducing this burden to Diana Hynek, Department of Commerce, Room 6625, 14th and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230 (or via the internet at dHynek@doc.gov).
Notwithstanding any other provisions of the law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall any person be subjected to a penalty for failure to comply with, a collection of information
subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, unless that collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
