Inland municipal fisheries include the catching of fish, crustaceans, molluscs and all other aquatic animals and plants in inland waters like lakes, rivers, dams, marshes, swamps, irrigation canals, creeks, etc. using simple gears and fishing boats some of which are non-motorized with a capacity of three (3) gross tons or less, or fishing not requiring the use of fishing boats.
Data on monthly quantity and value of catch by species by households for the quarter are gathered during the survey. The survey is implemented by the staff of the Provincial Operations Centers (POCs) of the BAS.
Despite the meager contribution of inland fisheries to the total fisheries output, fisheries statistics would not be complete without the estimates from this sub-sector. The number of households dependent on catch from inland bodies of water could not be ignored. Fish catch of the households is usually intended for home consumption.
Members of the household who are involved in inland fishing are either full-time or part-time fishermen.

Sampling
The sampling frame for inland fisheries is the list of all households engaged in catching fish in rivers,lakes, swamps, creeks, irrigation canals, dams, reservoirs, etc. The listing of households was done in 1997.
Using the principles of simple random sampling, sample households are drawn from the list. Number of sample households varies by province. Provincial Operations Centers (POCs) are instructed to interview a minimum of ten (10) households every quarter. However, several provinces maintained more than 10 sample households to get a more accurate basis of estimation for quarterly volume and value of inland production. Sample households are the same throughout the year. However, POCs are given prerogative to replace sample households that stopped fishing activity.
For 2009, 1,300 households were sampled out of 83,447 total households listed nationwide..

Response rate for quarterly survey of inland fisheries is 100%.
A factor derived from the number of total households over the sample households is used to estimate monthly production of inland fisheries in the province . This factor varies from one province to another.

Face-to-face [f2f]
The Regional Agricultural Statistics Officer (RASO) is responsible for the regional level monitoring and supervision of the survey operations of the Provincial Operations Centers.
The Provincial Agricultural Statistical Officer (PASO) is the over-all supervisor in the province. As field supervisor, the PASO should ensure accuracy of data collection, completeness of the accomplished survey forms. Part of the PASO's tasks is the conduct of spot-checking and back-checking on the work of POC staff who act as data collectors in this survey.

QIFS Form 1 is a one -page questionnaire in the English language used in gathering information on the monthly quantity and price per kilogram by species of fish catch of the sample households during the reference quarter.
One questionnaire per sample household is used in the conduct of the interview. Names of household head and respondent, as well as the relationship of the respondent to the household head are included in the survey form.
The same questionnaire is used every quarter. The same data structure is required in every quarter.

Data Processing
Manual editing of questionnaires at the provincial level is needed before the electronic data processing of survey returns.
Steps in data editing include the following:
a) Completeness of data items in the questionnaire
b) Correctness of unit of measurement used
c) Coding and encoding
d) Expansion factor used
Before the results are summarized, another series of consistency and completeness check is made during electronic data processing.

Data Appraisal
The accomplished QIFS forms serve as inputs for internal checks of the survey data. Units of measurement used for volume and price are reviewed. Levels of estimates are compared with those of the same quarter last year. Change in production is assessed if it reflects the real inland fisheries situation in the province. Some parameters used in the validation of inland fisheries are the number of households, productivity of sources of catch, fingerlings dispersal program of the BFAR.
