The toll-free, 24/7 reporting hotline for all fishery interactions and other marine mammal incidents is 1-888-256-9840.  DLNR and NOAA Fisheries urge all fishermen and other ocean users to write down this hotline and save it in their mobile phones for timely use whenever a seal is hooked or entangled.
