Impact Description | Angler interviews in North Canterbury, New Zealand revealed that on average, the presence of Didymosphenia geminata in a waterbody reduced fishing values by NZ$44 per fishing trip, and impacted the recreational experiences of a number of angler classes. Since fishing equipment is a vector for the species, angler movement is involved in management. |
