Exploring angler participation: The role of constraints, negotiation strategies, and crowding responses
This study explores how angler characteristics, perceived constraints, use of negotiations, and responses to crowding differ between lapsed, recruited, re-activated, and retained anglers. Using Utah’s fishing license database, we surveyed a stratified random sample of anglers from various stages of angling participation, which resulted in 5421 responses. Exploratory factor analysis was used to reduce constraint and negotiation scale items into underlying constructs, then ANOVA and multinomial logistic regression were used to identify differences between angler classifications. Although anglers reported mild constraints to angling overall, retained anglers were significantly more likely to experience constraints related to fishing quality and significantly less likely to experience lack of interest and structural constraints (i.e., money, transportation, access, facilities, knowledge, and information). The analysis also revealed planning negotiations (i.e., planning and setting aside time for fishing, encouraging friends and family to join, and searching for high quality fishing spots) as well as taking one’s own children fishing were significantly stronger for more persistent angler classifications (re-activated and retained) relative to those who have lapsed. Also, results show crowding negatively impacts retained anglers’ experience and alters their behavior more than other angler groups, but crowding does not seem to be a reason for lapsing. Given retained anglers prioritize angling (i.e., they effectively use planning negotiation strategies) and are more likely to take others fishing (especially their own children), we suggest management and research focus on ways to cultivate retained anglers’ role in engaging new and less active anglers.
期刊介绍:
This journal provides an international forum for the publication of papers in the areas of fisheries science, fishing technology, fisheries management and relevant socio-economics. The scope covers fisheries in salt, brackish and freshwater systems, and all aspects of associated ecology, environmental aspects of fisheries, and economics. Both theoretical and practical papers are acceptable, including laboratory and field experimental studies relevant to fisheries. Papers on the conservation of exploitable living resources are welcome. Review and Viewpoint articles are also published. As the specified areas inevitably impinge on and interrelate with each other, the approach of the journal is multidisciplinary, and authors are encouraged to emphasise the relevance of their own work to that of other disciplines. The journal is intended for fisheries scientists, biological oceanographers, gear technologists, economists, managers, administrators, policy makers and legislators.
