Description
HARs themselves are a quality assurance/compliance tracking tool used to verify the accuracy/completeness of the submitted trip reports.The trip (date, type, number of anglers) would be recorded on the HAR but the trip report data would be estimated so as to limit the effects of recall bias.To adjust for misreporting, port agents maintain a headboat activity report for each vessel by month and attempted to account for every day within the month. Information for the headboat activity reports are obtained from office records, ticket agents, vessel logs, dock masters, etc. Total estimated effort is divided by reported effort to calculate a value for correcting reported landings.
