In times past, I've always taken the opportunity to fill out the creeler's card with my name and address so that I'd receive a courtesy letter informing me of just where the fish was hatched. It's the ONLY "cool" factor about getting checked in the first place. In 2017, the WDFW creel program got rid of the manually written cards (understandably so given the labor-intensive reply process and the fiscal burden of snail mail) and replaced them with this self-serve web-based application.

Seriously, did ANY one else even try it this year?


Is there a guide to using this database?

I’ve never been checked by a fish checker. I’ve seen them when launching but they were gone when I got back.
