Survey

Those surveys are DFW. They call them a "creel survey".
During the Lobster advisory committee meetings the DFW and commercial Lobster guys and the NGO's tried to use the data from a creel survey that was conducted years ago, to prove that the ratio of hoop netters and divers was about 20% divers to 80% hoopers. That's total BS... as most divers walk right off the beach or launch from a slip and never even get seen, counted, or interviewed by the DFW at a hand launch dock or launch ramp.
Like the lobster report card, creel surveys are just another tool or piece of the puzzle to help see the whole picture...but they are definitely not quite as valuable as the DFW makes them out to be, since the info can be as skewed as the respondee feels like giving that day.

I wondered the same thing but didn't want to say anything. This is one of the reasons I didn't agree with the 'post it when you want to' rules. I can assure you that if there was a deadline (end of the month) the WCW would get more attention.

Size doesn't matter when it's your first. Besides that will yield a couple of pounds of tasty fillets. Congrats!
