FIN tagged fish

[MetalFish513]

I caught a tagged trout out of one of the FIN lakes at the beginning of February. So I mailed in the tag but still haven't received my pin or anything. Does anyone know about how long it takes to get your pin or to receive any information about the drawing you're supposed to be entered into?

KDFW would know...call them

Wait, so KDFWR tags fish in the FIN lakes? And you can get a pin if you catch one?

Yeah there are signs all around the lakes that say if you catch a tagged fish to mail in the tag and there are even special envelops to fill out and a drop box right there at the lake. The signs say you'll receive a pin and also be entered in a drawing to win $10-$100.

Cool! First I've heard of it. Thanks.

No problem. I also forgot to mention both trout and channel cats are tagged.

You can call KDFWR at 1-800-858-1549. That is the general information line and someone should be able to put you through to the person you need to talk to.
