Supply–demand equilibria and the size–number trade‐off in spatially structured recreational fisheries

Recreational fishing effort varies across complex inland landscapes (e.g., lake‐districts) and appears influenced by both angler preferences and qualities of the fishery resource, like fish size and abundance. However, fish size and abundance have an ecological trade‐off within a population, thereby structuring equal‐quality isopleths expressing this trade‐off across the fishing landscape. Since expressed preferences of recreational anglers...
