They do have release pins for this year. Not that pins are that big a deal to me, but if you want a few for your hat, you don't have to kill a fish.
The way I look at it is, I'm going to fish anyway. If I happen to get a decent fish, I can weigh it on a Manley, take a quick measurement and submit it for a pounder release pin. If not, the Harpoon-fest is a pretty good time. It's worth the $25 to me.
