Recreational fishing can be defined as catching fish for fun.
From the rear cover
Recreational or sport fishing is important for three major reasons:
- economic (it is a multi-billion dollar world industry);
- social (it is embedded in the cultures of many nations;
- ecological (it affects the environment and food webs in many ways).
Recreational Fisheries covers a range of methods, case studies and perspectives on the multidisciplinary evaluation of the benefits and costs of sports fisheries.
This book is an essential reference for anyone active in the management, assessment, policy making or development of sport and recreational fisheries worldwide. All fisheries scientists and managers will require a copy of this important publication. Environmental and aquatic scientists, ecologists and oceanographers will also find this book of great value in their work. Libraries in research establishments, laboratories and universities where fisheries and biological sciences are studied and taught should have multiple copies of this book.
