Virginia Game Fish Tagging Program Annual Report 2004* *(And 2003 Update) VIRGINIA GAME FISH TAGGING PROGRAM ANNUAL REPORT 2004 Jon A. Lucy Claude M. Bain III WILLIAM& MARY Virginia Marine Resource Report Number 2005-3 Historic Harrison's Fishing Pier (built 1947 at West Ocean View Avenue, Norfolk, Virginia; destroyed by Hurricane Isabel September 18, 2003) Photo courtesy of Mr. Mike Harrison, Taylor’s Landing Marine Center, 8166 Shore Drive, Virginia Beach, VA 23518 (757-572-8367 Mobile). If interested, two sizes (8 x 32 in. or 9.5 x 40 in.) of the “limited edition” photograph are available for sale by contacting Mr. Harrison. As with other Hampton Roads' fishing piers lost to Hurricane Isabel, anglers using Harrison's Pier contributed data on tagged and recaptured fish to the Virginia Game Fish Tagging Program. Sharing a sense of the importance of the pier to Norfolk's anglers and the Ocean View Community as a whole, the Tagging Program coordinators join many others in celebrating the pier rebuilding project.

Through 2003-2004, the program’s database includes over 78,000 records of tag-released fish and approximately 7,800 recapture records of tagged fish. Primary funding support for the tagging program is from the Virginia Marine Resources Commission (VMRC) using the state’s Saltwater Recreational Fishing License Funds. Annual funding proposals are submitted to VMRC’s Recreational Fishing Advisory Board for peer-review, public comment,

Chincoteague Discusses Possible Measures Ahead of July 1 Marijuana Legalization By Carol Vaughn Chincoteague town council members at the April 15 meeting discussed im- plications for the town of the legaliza- tion of marijuana possession in Virgin- ia, which takes effect July 1. Other parts of the legislation, including retail sales, do not take effect until 2024. The legislation makes possession of up to an ounce of marijuana legal for people 21 and older starting July 1. Adults caught with more than an ounce but less than a pound face a $25 fine.
