The Cooperative Game Fish Tagging
Program was initiated in 1971 as part of
a comprehensive research program
resulting from passage of Public Law
86–359, Study of Migratory Game Fish,
and other legislative acts under which
the National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) operates. The Cooperative
Tagging Center attempts to determine
the migration patterns of, and other
biological information for, billfish,
tunas, and swordfish. The fish tagging
report is provided to the angler with the
tags, and he/she fills out the card with
the information when a fish is tagged
and mails it to NMFS. Information on
each species is used by NMFS to
determine migratory patterns, distance
traveled, stock boundaries, age, and
growth. These data are necessary input
for developing management criteria by
regional fishery management councils,
states, and NMFS.
