Intersection of environment, behavior, and physiological traits on angling vulnerability
… with environmental contexts to influence angling vulnerability in three separate studies. Largemouth bass behavior assays and stress responsiveness were measured in a laboratory and followed by angling in ponds. Environmental contexts included food availability and the presence or absence …

Physiological and behavioral drivers of angling vulnerability in freshwater sportfish
… For FIE to occur as a result of recreational angling, it is necessary that particular traits (for instance, aspects of an individual fish’s behavior or physiology) are associated with an increased likelihood of capture by anglers, leading to selective harvest that causes directional evolution …

Potential influences of climate change and tournament angling on lake ecosystems with a focus on largemouth bass
… for their impact on these systems. Tournament angling an anthropogenic stressor that has the potential to negatively influence populations of popular sportfish, as fish are often removed from nesting grounds during the spawning season. While angled individuals often have limited reproductive …

Angling for Insight: Examining the Recreational Fishing Community's Knowledge, Perceptions, Practices, and Preferences to Inform Rockfish Recovery Planning in Puget Sound, Washington
An ever-growing body of literature highlights the importance of understanding user groups and stakeholders in conjunction with biological information to manage and recover threatened or endangered species. Stakeholder support is especially important to manage less charismatic or "little known" …

Ecological and recreational interactions of the native pike Esox lucius and the invasive pikeperch Sander lucioperca in England.
In England, freshwater angling is an important recreational pastime with substantial socio-economic benefits, but is also a major introduction pathway for non-native fishes. As recreational anglers often prefer targeting large-bodied fishes, introductions of non- native species have become an …

Physiological Diversity of Centrarchid Fishes
… evolutionary consequences of selection through angling. Comparing two distinct lines of largemouth bass differentially selected for high and low vulnerability to angling over several generations, the more vulnerable line had higher metabolic rates and was more aggressive in defending broods. …

The impact of cormorants (Phalacrocorax carbo carbo and Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis) on inland fisheries in the UK
… presence. This contrasts with the views of angling bodies, who assert that the presence of cormorants, feeding daily on their fisheries, has a damaging impact on fish stocks with inevitable financial losses. Due to a lack of effective non-lethal control methods, the angling bodies wish to …

The impacts of environmental and anthropogenic stressors on largemouth bass: an integration of field and laboratory studies
… fish species can be subjected to competitive angling events, which expose fish to an array of additional stressors that can increase mortality. The impacts of these events may change over seasons as fish display seasonal changes in behavior and physiology. Latitudinal origin may also affect …

Managing common mental disorders and PTSD in the community.
… Veterans. A series of three pilot studies (angling, falconry/archery and equine intervention) are carried out to explore the validity of a proposed new intervention to reduce PTSD symptomology, Peer Outdoor Exposure Therapy (POET). To extrapolate the learning achieved through the pilot …

Recreational specialization as an indicator of attitudes and management preferences of Virginia river anglers
The angling public is a heterogenous aggregation of subgroups with differing value systems; therefore, fisheries managers must identify the subgroups and their corresponding attributes to guide management programs. This study was designed to evaluate the concept of recreational specialization for …

Empirical evaluation of the effectiveness of South Africa's marine protected area network in representing fish communities
… fish community structure as sampled by shore angling, trawling, boat-based line-fishing and seine netting was compared across the EEZ of South Africa, including sites in designated MPAs. Multivariate statistics were used to assess the extent to which MPAs represent the full range of fish …
