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
