Trout Tagging Study
This is the second year of the Lake Hopatcong Commision Trout Tagging Study
Report any tagged trout at LHC/trout.com
This is the first year that holdover tagged trout could be encountered, so it is very important to report every catch.
Last year's tag is light blue, this year will be silver metallic. The numbers may be difficult to read, but please report the catch and the tag color. Include a picture if possible.
If you don't have a trout stamp, you can still report the trout as long as you release it
