Social, attitudinal and motivational recreational fishing survey: Part of the 2010 statewide recreational fishing survey

Abstract

This report summarises the results from the Social, attitudinal and motivational survey (conducted in 2011 as part of the 2010 Statewide recreational fishing survey, (SWRFS)) and where possible compares them with results from the 2001 Queensland wash-up/attitudinal survey (part of the National recreational and indigenous fishing survey (NRIFS) 2000/01). Many of the questions asked in the two surveys were identical, providing the rare opportunity to profile the views of fishers from over a decade.
