public record. Before including your address, phone number, email

    Abstract: The Susquehanna River Angler Survey collects information 
from anglers in Pennsylvania about their preferences for fishing, 
including information about their general fishing preferences, their 
most recent fishing trip, if they would have gone on their most recent 
fishing trip under different circumstances, and demographic 
information. The survey results will be used to determine the economic 
value of recreational fishing in the Susquehanna River and its 
tributaries under various best-management scenarios. The results will 
inform resource managers in considering the costs and benefits of 
alternative management actions.
