The webinar will focus on three important elements of a successful 
citizen science strategy: techniques that motivate anglers to report 
their catches; methods to evaluate the quality of the data collected; 
and ways self-reported citizen science data may address research and 
management issues. A question-and-answer session will follow the 
presentation. Members of the public will have the opportunity to 
participate in the discussion. The presentation is for informational
