The other number that is factored in is the mysterious " unreported number of fish " .

All in all it's a piss poor way of collecting data.

I say issue 5 tags per permit. They have to be signed and dated upon a catch and then called in with the tag number. Make the fine for an untagged fish so heavy it will self regulate.

I agree totally.
