Thank you all for the advice regarding how best to get the word out.
We are not necessarily looking for more volunteers to help tag crabs, although if anyone is interested we may be able to use the help (depending on the location and specific circumstances), so let us know.
Instead, we are primarily interested in encouraging people to report the tagged once they are caught. As Duck Butter said, the tags are brightly colored and fairly visible, and contain all the necessary information to report the tags. We are trying to get the word out about the project, though. We've talked to the Crab Task Force and are posting flyers at crab docks, boat ramps, and bait shops.
But, we would appreciate any ideas for how best to increase awareness of the project. I will contact Todd Masson on Monday. If anyone has any suggestions for websites to contact or post on, we'd appreciate that information as well.
