Douglas Gray "Doug" Mumford (born March 1, 1954 in Grifton, North Carolina) is a marine biologist largely known for his involvement with recreational fishery statistics with the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Marine Fisheries[1].
A North Carolina native, avid fisherman, and UNCW graduate, Mumford was instrumental in developing many of the state’s ongoing fishery management programs. Mumford was a constituent in developing the state’s ongoing Commercial Trip Ticket Program used to monitor millions of pounds of finfish and shellfish landings to enhance fishery management efforts in the region. Doug currently manages several programs within the state, including the coast-wide Marine Recreational Fisheries Statistic Survey, the Highly Migratory Species Reporting Program, and other survey efforts to enhance the state’s aquatic resources. Specialized species include striped bass, bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, and billfish. Aside from his work as a marine biologist, Doug is also well known for his invovlement in the community[citation needed].
