Default anyone tagging fish in Verm Bay?
I was thinking of joining the Louisiana Tag program, was wondering if anyone has joined fishing the Vermilion Bay area? I spend 90% of my fishing time around Cypremort Pt, Verm bay, SWpass , the reefs etc. I've never heard of anyone catching a tagged fish or of anyone tagging fish.
Seems we lack in that area.

I would, but I eat every fish I catch. If they start tagging hard heads, I'm in. Otherwise, I'm keeping the fish.

So you only catch fish that are legal?

Good thought. Guess I could tag all the 11 inch specks at Caldwell.

I started tagging fish in Dec. 2002 and thus far have tagged 51 fish when fishing out of Cypromort Pt. and a lot more when fishing the West Cote and East Coat Blanche Bay areas. Have tagged 1,400+ fish (total) and thought that was a lot but a doctor from Lafayette tagged this many in one year. About 30 of my 1,400 have been caught a 2nd time.

On my way to Burn's Pt. in about 30 minutes and will post when I get back.

I have the kit as well, but my dad would never let me throw a fish back in the water. I need to go with some fellow taggers. I'd tag everyone, I barely eat them anymore

Again, you can tag fish that aren't legal.

True but you don't catch that many small ones plus I'd rather tag the big ones

You can tag small reds? Not small trout. Right?

Fished ECBB on Tuesday, 7:30 to 12:00, finding very little fishable water but catching 6 reds, 1 flounder, 2 bass & 1 goo, all on artificials. Tagged 1 bass & 3 red fish. Salinity was about 1.5 and dirty, surprised we caught anything.

Ive tagged a few redfish last summer around redfish point and little bay. Hopefully going to be getting back on the water in a few weeks to get on some more fish.
