The Wyoming Game and Fish Department is conducting a tagging study to learn more about potential benefits to providing fish passage for spawning trout to the Encampment River, and angler participation is essential to the success of the study.
Please inspect all brown trout caught for a tag. Tags are blaze orange in color with a unique ID number and phone number located on them. Tags are located directly behind the dorsal fin on the trout's back.
Please do the following if you catch a tagged brown trout:
1) Clip the tag from the fish
2) Call the phone number on the tag and report the unique ID#, location and date you caught the tagged fish
You can also mail the tag(s) to the Laramie Regional Office of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department - 528 South Adams, Laramie, WY 82070. If you do mail the tag(s) don't forget to include the location and date you caught the tagged fish.
Anglers who report catching a tagged brown trout will be given the distance the fish migrated since being tagged. Anglers participating in this study are directly contributing to improving fish passage in the Encampment River and future angling success.
