| Very cool Curt! Good that you got a return too. Despite tagging multiple marlin, sails, tuna, shark, stripers, and even bluefish, I'm still waiting for my first return. I caught a tagged cod about 4 years ago east of the bank. Turns out it didn't move too far in the 12 months since it was tagged. The most remarkable thing this fish did was morph from a pollack (as originally reported) into a codfish! I didn't know they could do that. It was a boat from Green Harbor too that tagged this fish -- but not relentless -- I know you guys know the difference! We caught a tagged blue shark during the OB tournament. That fish was tagged a little more than one year earlier off Shinnecock. Weather permitting, I'll be out tomorrow hoping to deploy the last of my tuna tags on some willing participants.
