The science and math they use to extract and formulate the recreational number has ZERO substantial data behind it. If/When NMFS is asked where they derived there informatiion from you response has/will be "best guess" scenario. They are trying to figure out what percentage of recreational tuna which are landed (killed) are not called in. They are basically throwing darts into the darkness hoping for the best but usually missing the board.
The process and the harrassing calls from the tuna people can be time consuming and bothersome. What they should do is let anglers email into the central data base. Easier quicker and they could make an easy to use form for us on their website.
But really it comes down to the angler calling in the fish and doing what is LAWFULLY required.
