1 Southeast party boat mode expenditures are not included, as data for this mode is collected in a separate survey.
2 Because bait and ice expenditures were reported in separate categories in the Northeast and Southeast, they were combined to conform with the single
category reported on the Pacific Coast.
3 Pacific Coast non-resident expenditures are not included in this total because the Pacific Coast survey did not collect information regarding the amount of
these goods purchased in the state of intercept.
4 The Pacific Coast survey included an additional category called “Gear” that was a subset of the items included in “Other tackle” in the Northeast and Southeast
surveys. Therefore, “Gear” and “Other tackle” categories were summed to the Pacific Coast.
5 These expenditure categories were not collected on the Pacific Coast.
6 License fee expenditures were not collected in the Northeast survey.
7 The Pacific Coast survey included an additional category called “Boat accessories” that was a subset of the items included in “Power Boat purchases” in the
Northeast and Southeast surveys. Therefore, these categories were summed for the Pacific Coast.
8 Both of these maintenance categories were only collected on the Pacific Coast.
