TL;DR: This article used fuzzy cognitive mapping to collect detailed, graphic information about recreational fishers' mental models as a way to improve the way scientific information is communicated to them, and identified driving variables and constraints to fisher's interest in taking up scientific information.
Abstract: Fisheries management benefits from improving the communication of scientific information to recreational fishers through improved compliance and greater contributions during consultation and engagement. This study uses fuzzy cognitive mapping to collect detailed, graphic information about recreational fishers' mental models as a way to improve the way scientific information is communicated to them. Fishers were given three examples of scientific information to understand the affective, cognitive and conative reactions to different types of fisheries-related information that they often encounter, and mental models were derived based on topics they found most and least interesting. This study identifies driving variables and constraints to fishers' interest in taking up scientific information. The results suggest a message's clarity, perceived regular usefulness, good and bad emotion and investments in money and time influence fishers' interest in taking up scientific information. Fishers' initial levels of interest in a topic also significantly affect the complexity of thought processes leading to further interest in informal learning and the relative roles of the driving variables and constraints.

TL;DR: In this paper, the negative impact of recreational fishing on fish stocks has been discussed, despite the positive impacts of recreational fish stocks on fish populations in different countries, and despite the growing recreational demands on fisheries resources.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate displacement behavior among inshore fishing guides based on a contextual self-classification measure reflecting guides' style of participation and find that the least specialized guide type (Limit Guides) substituted SST for an alternative species more often than All-purpose Guides during the 2010 calendar year.

TL;DR: A simple procedure which involves two separate lines and line crossing every third generation is presented and the advantages are increased genetic performance and reduced rate of inbreeding.
Abstract: Selective breeding is a complex problem. A simple procedure which involves two separate lines and line crossing every third generation is presented. The advantages are increased genetic performance and reduced rate of inbreeding. The procedure and theory are discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on the need to avoid inbreeding, which can lead to loss of the breeding population.
