tagging

[JUSTINHALL]

I tried to by a high tech tagging system for Stripers on Lake Cumberland and was told it was highly illegal unless with a conservation club of some kind which also needs permission. With that being said the stripers are a regulated stocked fish, so that may be different then non stocked fish.
The company I was buying it from, said it was illegal so I called Core of Engineers and they told me I was not allowed to and there would be a fine per fish if someone were to get caught doing it.

The best way is to contact the game and fish deptment in the area that you are thinking about tagging. The COE does not have anything to say about the fishing regs. in the lake. That is regulated by the game and fish so if they tell you what to do concerning fishing is not nessasary the law.
