The new FIN number requirement for all anglers 16 years of age or older is now available at http://www.delaware-fin.com or via the phone (not the preferred method) 800-432-9228. Note that January 1, 2009 this requirement is required of all anglers, exempt or otherwise, participants on a boat that has a boat license, and those anglers that participate on head boats or charter boats.

This free number must be kept on the person by the angler. For those that have a license there is now a place for the FIN number.

To qualify for exempt status with the National Marine Fisheries, the registry of Delaware's saltwater anglers must also include those who are not legally required to have a recreational license. Because of this requirement, resident senior citizens age 65 and older and unlicensed anglers who fish from a licensed vessel will also need to obtain a Delaware F.I.N. number.
