New Tagging Program Underway

-

Gray FishTag Research is an internatio­nal, fully interactiv­e multispeci­es fish-tagging program based in Florida and powered by the world’s largest network of fishing profession­als, consisting of approximat­ely 10,000 captains and mates. The program deployed its first tagging efforts in Costa Rica, and is now collecting vital informatio­n in real time, producing valuable scientific data directly from fishermen in every part of the world. The objective is to ramp up convention­al tagging throughout the world and continue to expand tagging for billfish and other species in the Pacific Ocean off Costa Rica.
