Possible biases
Non respondents
Low proportion or non participants in recreational Fishing, low trust in authorities, taxes
Questions on last years fishing - indirect observation
How the individuals remember their fishing (you now how fishermen's are) Accuracy Validation
To many questions
Low return rate or difficulties understand and giving relevant answers on questions
Willingness to participate – need of validation
No answer is not the same as not fishing or fishing
Lies, joking with authorities, reporting of extreme high catches
