This report is the descriptive phase of a research project on the
economics of marine recreational fishing along the middle and south Atlantic
coast of the U.S. It describes the data from three large surveys on
sportfishing, surveys that will form the basis of a subsequent phase of the
research project. This first phase provides a broad brushed picture of
saltwater fishing during the 1980's and serves as a foundation for a more
comprehensive economic study yet to come.

This report contains information regarding both the costs and benefits
of protecting marine mammals and threatened marine species. The report is
organized according to the explicit and implicit costs of restricting marine
fishing and the economic value of marine mammals. The conflict between free
trade and global marine resources is examined in light of two conflicts - the
dolphin bycatch by tuna vessels in the Eastern Tropical Pacific and sea turtle
bycatch by shrimpers in the Caribbean. The implicit costs to U.S. consumers
from various policies restricting trade in tuna and explicit costs to U.S.
tuna fishermen from avoiding dolphins in the ETP are presented. Substitution
among animal protein sources in Japan is examined and adds to our
understanding of how sanctions against food from the sea effect the
terrestrial environment. Finally, a survey of Massachusetts citizens and
scientists regarding their willingness to pay for the elimination of the
bycatch of harbor porpoises in New England waters is presented. We provide
estimates indicating that the costs of marine mammal protection, both to
fishermen and consumers, are large, that the stated willingness to pay of
Massachusetts citizens for the marine mammal protection is large, and that the
preferences for the protection of harbor porpoises by scientists are not
distinct from preferences of the general public.
