State offers interactive voice system for anglers to report red snapper harvest

Just in time for the red snapper season, Alabama fishermen have a new tool that makes reporting their catch easier than ever. The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources just launched their second interactive voice response system (IVR) 1-844-REDSNAP (733-7627). In addition to the Game Check IVR, which allows hunters to report turkey and deer harvests, anglers can now call a toll-free number to report their red snapper harvest. The state has made red snapper reporting mandatory in order to more accurately count red snapper harvested among Alabama's anglers.

This new regulation requires the captain or owner of a charter or private vessel with red snapper on board to report all red snapper kept and discarded dead prior to landing in Alabama, regardless of the location where the fish were caught.

The state has provided multiple reporting options in order to make the reporting process easier for anglers. Anglers can call 1-844-REDSNAP (733-7627) to utilize the IVR system. Reports may be submitted by paper form at certain docks, online, and also through the Outdoor Alabama mobile application, available on both the iTunes store and the Google Play Store.
