The SEFSC, in cooperation with the South Atlantic states, collects South Atlantic shrimp data from dealers and fishermen. These data are collected to provide catch, value, area caught, and effort data for individual commercial fishing trips. It should be noted that some states are not providing effort data. Although this objective is never totally achieved, the SEFSCs data do provide a near-census of the commercial catches, the majority of which are for consolidated trips
