An automated fish culling system, comprising:
- a base station comprising:
- a processor;
- base station display means for displaying information corresponding to a plurality of cull tags, said base station display means being communicably coupled to said processor;
- said plurality of cull tags, each configured to be associated with a fish, each cull tag of said plurality of cull tags comprising cull tag display means for identifying said cull tag;
- and
- a memory for storing data comprising information associated with said fish, said information comprising a fish weight,
- wherein said processor determines which fish to cull based on at least said fish weight associated with each fish, and indicates which fish to cull via at least said base station display means.
