Flannelmouth Sucker School Shocked

School of Flannelmouth Sucker (Catostomus latipinnis) getting electrofished on McElmo Creek, Utah. All fish were captured, measured, tagged with a Passive Integrate Transponder (PIT) tag and released. Based on antenna data near the confluence of McElmo Creek and the San Juan River, these fish represent a portion of the mainstem San Juan RIver population that migrates up into McElmo Creek (over 25 km upstream) to spawn before returning to the San Juan River in the following month. These fish...

Raritan River Fish Passage & PIT Tagging Study

As part of the overall restoration of the Raritan River, New Jersey's largest interior watershed, a migratory fish passage study is being conducted at the Island Farm Weir fish ladder to assess the passage efficiency of the structure. This video demonstrates how migratory fish (such as the blueback herring in the video) are tagged with Passive Integrated Transponders (PIT). The study is being conducted at a critical time given that several dam removals conducted between 2011-2013 (Calco Dam,...

"PIT" Tag Implanted into Sturgeon

LSSU Fisheries student Meghan Kline shows us what a PIT (Passive Integrated Transponder) tag looks like shortly before she implants it into a captured sturgeon. U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service biologist Scott Koproski explains the function of a PIT tag as Kline sets it into the fish. LSSU Aquatic Research Lab Co-Director Ashley Moerke then verifies the implanted tag with a hand-held scanner. This type of tag is exactly like the implanted microchips that are popular with pet owners. Sturgeon caught...

Benton Lake PIT Tag Reader

~265 Carp were tagged using PIT (Passive Integrated Transponder) tags in Benton Lake, Cologne, MN. The unit shown in the video reads the tags that were implanted in the carp. It will give us migration information on carp within Benton Lake to Muewissen Lake, a potential nursery for juvenile carp.
