Nice Jim! Call 800-448-8322 with the info to get your certificate, and a choice of hat or striper pin. (If it were a green tag, there would have been $)

Yeah I just called them and I took the "pin" option. Given the number of fish I've caught in the many years of fishing, I am actually surpised that I never got a tag before. I was kind of excited. I hope they tell me where and when it was tagged.

I am surprised that you have never caught a tagged fish before. I have caught two on BI but not for a while now.

Ize guts a hand full of them. TBag was with me one night a few years ago and I got 2 in 1 night. A high 20# fish at the Narrow River in Narr and later that night about a 24 inch fish at Watch Hill. Two different tags. One pink and one yellow.
Now go buy a lottery ticket.

Caught bunches of them over the years, USF&WS, Hudson River tags, and American Littoral Society, which I had tagged a few fish for years ago.
Got hats, pins and a poster.
Folks up here say that the Hudson River population does not mix with the Chesapeake fish but one night several years back drifting eels in Barnstable Harbor, my bud Eric landed two tagged fish in a row. One had a Hudson River tag and the other the USFWS tag. I usually get a couple a year. Got 3 last year, all ALS yeloow tags.
I hate the way they do it with the tag thru the fished back and it's always nasty when you get one. I cut them off just to relieve the fish of the stress of the constant open wound.
