    The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) plans to collect data

California's Central Valley. NMFS has engaged in major habitat

anglers' recreational fishing patterns, expenditures and demographics, 
and factors affecting trip frequency and location (e.g., travel 
distance, amenities, landscape features as well as quality of fishing).
