$500 Reward for Tagged Albacore

Since 2001 AFRF and the SWFSC have conducted a cooperative research project tagging albacore. Recovered tags have produced interesting data on albacore migration, feeding patterns, depths, and daily movements. This information informs stock assessments and development of management guidelines. You can help with this important research by watching for and returning tagged albacore this season. Return to your nearest processor or contact AFRF for more information.
