WILD SALMON CARCASS TAGGING AND LOG BOOK SCHEME FOR 2001 SEASON
The Department of the Marine and Natural Resources has introduced a Cascass Tagging and Logbook scheme for commercial and recreational salmon catches. The scheme is to be administered by the Central and Regional Fisheries Boards. There are a series of leaflets for anglers on tagging their catch and recording relevant details in their logbooks. From January 1st 2001 all salmon rod licence holders shall affix a tag to
all salmon
sea trout over 40 cms they catch and retain
These tags will identify salmon and sea trout (over 40cms), which have been caught legally, and will therefore allow for an enumeration of the catch. For further information, please go to our page 'Wild Salmon Carcass and Log Book Scheme'
