.....Tagged fish is part of a study for sure. Perhaps a stocking or movement study? Call the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (omnr) to report your catch. They'll likely ask a few questions on location, size, date, etc.

I believe Fishmaster posted some information about the Grand 'eyes stocking and tagging programs. I believe if you call the MNR and give them the tag number they can tell you where that fish was stocked, tagged, caught before, etc. Pretty cool that you caught one.

 

And wow, you really did well on the 'eyes. I've never caught more than a dozen in a day on the Grand.

My friend and I fished the Grand last weekend aswel, we caught a total of 3 eyes, 2 smaller ones being tagged fish. I caught the biggest being 4.6lb without any tags. Lots channel catfish. Maybe next weekend I'll bring the boat instead of just shore fishing.
