This survey is a part of a Rutgers University undergraduate student’s summer research project with the objective of describing anglers’ fishing practices while targeting summer flounder off New Jersey to better understand the impacts of discards and discard mortality and inform fisheries management decision-making. It is estimated that the survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. Please click on the following link to complete the survey:

Whats to survey?! Rutgers already knows that size limits means targeting breeders and letting all the males die of old age because they dont get over 18". So stop the BS - no one is playing this game of "Find Reasons to Blame the Recreational Fisherman".
