What do the” Add Effort Details” “Add Effort by Gear” and “Add Catch” buttons do?

Here’s how Effort works.

Please note: for the Canadian Lobster and Crab ELOG it is unlikely that you will need to press any of these buttons.

Here’s an explanation of the terms:

Add Effort by gear: record another record of catching using a different fishing gear

Add Effort detail: Record a catch that is hauled data from another location 

Add Catch: Add a catch section and is used for recording bycatch

What do the” Add Effort Details” “Add Effort by Gear” & “Add Catch” buttons do?

If your Trip and Landing are on the same day, these buttons do not apply to you.  Please ignore them. If you accidentally added one of them, click on the X to delete the section until you only have Effort by Gear #, 1 Effort Details # 1 and 1 Catch #. Or you can delete the form and start over.
