Tracking Game Fish Just Got Easier with UID’s PIT Tagging Kit

In recent years, the use of Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tags has surged among hobbyists, pond owners, and researchers seeking to track and monitor game fish in ponds, lakes, and private fisheries. These small, implantable microchips assign each fish a unique identification number, enabling long-term tracking of individual fish for research, conservation, or recreational purposes.

PIT Tagging System

To support this growing demand, UID has developed a streamlined and user-friendly PIT Tagging Kit, designed with both field convenience and data accuracy in mind. Each kit includes:

  • URH-2 Portable Reader for scanning and identifying tagged fish fish
  • 10 PIT tags* (2.1mm x 12mm) preloaded in sterile, single-use injectors
  • Six barcode ID stickers per tag for fast, error-free data capture

All components are neatly organized in a portable case for easy transport and storage. The case also provides added protection against dust and other environmental conditions, making it ideal for use at lakesides, hatcheries, and field research sites.

*Additional PIT tags can be purchased separately.

Barcode ID Stickers

The included barcode labels are ideal for simplifying data collection in outdoor environments. Anglers and researchers can easily tag fish right at the water’s edge and use the barcode stickers to record vital details such as length, weight, species, tagging date, lure or bait used, and location. This information can be quickly written onto a printed Excel form using a pen-and-paper method, then digitized later for more in-depth tracking and analysis.

Example of PIT Tagging System

Whether you’re managing a private fishery, conducting a tagging study, or simply want to follow the growth and movement of your trophy bass, UID’s PIT Tagging Kit makes the process simple, accurate, and efficient.
