Government tags its fish to trace growth and travel
The United States fish commission tags fishes with copper metal tags secured near the fin. Fifteen hundred cod were released on the New England coast last spring to study growth, spawning frequency, and ocean travel. This year young salmon hatched artificially are tagged to gauge age at river entry, growth rate, and fry maturation. The experiment bears on fish culture.
