self_reports: Captains' Self-Reports from 2016 Texas Parks and Wildlife Red...

Description Usage Format

Description

This dataset comes from a voluntary sample of charter fishing captains. The captains could self-report (via a smartphone app) their catch of Red Snapper fish and the number of anglers for each fishing trip. Each reported trip could also be sampled into a probability sample of docks along the Texas coast. Interviewers for the dockside sample boarded the boats and observed the number of Red Snapper caught and the number of anglers onboard. The self-reports are the "capture" sample and the dockside intercept is the "recapture" sample.
