A Question for Big Dave.. How does the Dept. of Marine Fisheries, track the recreational numbers, and how accurate are they?

How many recreational fishermen have kept track of their numbers and reported them to the state, independent of any poll taking?

I have participated once, in that poll, when a volunteer approached me in my camper, years ago. I listened in awe, as he was given artificial numbers from a couple of others, having a little fun with the guy. It was obvious, with the choked laughter he was getting BS'd, he was even smiling, as he was writing. And, in the several years since, I have not seen anyone else out polling, where and when I fish.

I have been told, by a person from the Dept., that those numbers, at best, are a guess, based on a small percentage, that are polled.
At least the comms. have weigh slips.
