Abstract

In this article, we estimate a single trip random utility model for primary purpose and secondary purpose anglers with data from a field survey of charter and head-boat passengers in North Carolina. We find that primary and secondary purpose anglers exhibit significantly different behaviour with regards to cost. However, once costs are weighted for secondary purpose anglers, the value of catch is not statistically different across groups.
