Experience Use History and Relationship to the Importance of Substitute Stream Attributes
Human Dimensions of Wildlife(2006)

Members of two Trout Unlimited Chapters associated with the Chattooga National Wild and Scenic River (South Carolina, Georgia) completed mail surveys (n = 292, 71% response rate) of experience use history with local substitute streams, number of substitute streams for the Chattooga, and importance ratings for stream and fishing attributes. About 65% of anglers had three or fewer substitute streams; nearly 15% had seven or more that were equivalent in fishing to the Chattooga. Anglers were experienced with alternative streams, averaging 17 years of use and 21 fishing trips in the last 12 months. Anglers with the most experience (long term, frequent users) at fishing substitute streams rated the stream/fishing attributes the highest; short term, frequent anglers rated the attributes second highest in importance. Experience use history, however, had limited statistical effects on substitution attribute perceptions. Possible explanations for these results are discussed, particularly the lack of specificity of...
