assuming I went to do fishing in lakeA for 2 weeks and manage to fish those number of fish:

23 25 24 24 25 23 27 21 22 23 18 19 22 21

I decided to move to LakeB and manage to catch the following fish in with in 17 days:

28 23 22 21 23 28 29 28 29 30 21 21 28 27 31 20 21 22

My question: how can I determine if lakeB is statistically significant than lakeA. meaning: it is better to go to lakeB because there's more fish to catch?

What I did? I calculated the Z scode for each lake but note sure how to proceed from here. How can I calculate the p value and reject/accept my hypothesis?

    Have you heard of the Mann$-$Whitney $U$ Test? If you had larger sample sizes than you may be able to get away with applying an independent samples $t$ test. The $U$ test is a non$-$parametric alternative to this $t$ test. – Matthew H. Jun 07 '22 at 00:24
