Synopsis (short abstract) This document has been prepared in response to the recommendations of the European Inland Fisheries Advisory Commission (EIFAC) to present a synthesis of the state of inland fisheries in Europe. The individual summaries were prepared by the author, working in collaboration with the national authorities. Every attempt has been made to keep the document as up-to-date as possible, but changes in technical and political spheres in European life are proceeding at such a rate as to lead inevitably to some reducing of material. The present document includes material from 22 European countries, and a second volume will be issued as and when summaries for the remaining countries become available.

    Data collection systems and methodologies for the inland fisheries of Europe 2020

    Inland fisheries are important sources of ecosystem services contributing to human diet, health, well-being and economies. The evaluation of the importance and value of inland fisheries is one of the biggest challenges for its development. To develop the inland fisheries data collection, we reviewed the current status of data collection in European countries and provided five detailed country examples. The specific country examples give detailed description of data collection, focusing on: 1) country-wide postal survey (Finland) and 2) web-based survey and development of citizen science approach (Denmark). Example 3) from Ireland focuses on recreational salmonid fishing and conservation limits. There are two examples based on logbook returns: 4) one strict system, which is considered to work well (Czech Republic) and 5) one less controlled system, currently not producing reliable results, and under development (Croatia). Case studies were provided in each country example. Finally, the authors discuss the important aspects of inland fisheries data collection and review the methods to provide recommendations.
