How to ID Rotary tag?

[HomeWood]

What does the Rotary tag on a rainbow trout look like? You may thing this a dumb question, because it's probably the only tag out there. I'm just curious on how I would know what the tag looks like if I am LUCKY enough to even see it:rolleye2: . Thanks.

The Rotary tags are just small cylinders that contain a number that is recorded by Rotary/Fish&Game when the lakes are stocked. They are about 1/2 inch long and through the dorsal fin of the fish.

Ok, thanks. Maybe I'll get to see one this year;) . Oh ya, I haven't gotten my derby brochure yet:( .

Hi. Can't explain why you haven't yet received your brochure, unless we don't have your correct address in our database. You can see the brochure, and output the registration form if you go to www.meredithrotary.org, Fill out the form and mail to us with your entry fee. Some of the information in the brochure is updated from last year. For instance, I believe the minimum size for a yellow perch is now 12 inches, not 14 inches. Some other new info is also posted. Good luck!

It just came in the mail today. Thanks so much though!

Wow, this is going to be a good derby. I'd be very interested in the Friday night meeting. Where can derby apparel be purchased? If there is any.

[donnamatrix]

What do you mean by "derby apparel" ? Do you mean hats/shirts etc that will have the Meredith Rotary Logo and legend "2007 Great Fishing Derby" or something like that ?

[HomeWood]

Yes. I've never seen any sweat shirts, T's or anything. Just curious if they exist.
