Automated Landing Reporting System (ALRS)
Anglers are required to report all recreationally caught Atlantic bluefin tuna, billfish, and swordfish to NMFS, provided the landings are not affiliated with a registered tournament. Reports are filed via an internet website or an interactive voice recording system. The data are stored in the ALRS. Data elements collected include species landed, date of landing, date of fishing trip, port of landing, vessel name, vessel permit number, fish length, fish weight, type of trip (charter/private), fishing technique, bait type, fight time, number and species of fish released.
