Sounds like some nitwit regulator was like "we require people to do it for Deer, so let's make them do it for tuna." To me, it sounds like a precursor to a "tagged tuna fishery". Soon as you kill the fish, they'll want you to put a tag on it. Recs will probably get something like 3 tags/year with their permit. Then the next year, it'll be 2 tags and then only 1 tag a few years after that.
