Description:The NMFS Southeast Region Headboat Survey (SRHS) is administered by the Beaufort Laboratory of the National Marine Fisheries Service’s (NMFS) Southeast Fisheries Science Center (SEFSC). The SRHS samples recreational headboats, which typically carry more than 6 passengers. The survey has operated along the southeast U.S. Atlantic coast (SEUS) since 1972. It is the longest continuous time series of recreational fi sheries data from federal waters in the SEUS. The SRHS is composed of industry-reported trip data (referred to as “logbooks,” “catch records,” or “trip reports”) from headboat trips and biological data collected dockside by SRHS port samplers from a subset of trips and anglers. Headboats (also referred to as “party boats”) are distinct from charterboats, which almost always carry six passengers or fewer and charge one fee for the entire boat.
