Cape Rover and MCZ as well as my buddies son were out this day. We tagged 6and I used my stepson's name on the fish I reeled in. I'm attaching a photo of Brian's fish so you can see the size of represented as this was the only one we boated for a photo that day
Mr. Danny Whiting and Captain Richard Betts-
A 45 pound bluefin you tagged on October 14, 2006 off of Georges Bank was recaptured in Cape CodBay on August 23, 2009. At the time of recapture the fish was 65 inches, with a girth of 44 inches. Congratulations to both of you for tagging a fish which was recaptured. I have sent certificates of congratulations to you both and will send you t-shirts as well. Can you please provide me with you t-shirt size, so that I may send the correct size? Recapture data helps fisheries conservation and biological science. We appreciate your support and your involvement in the Tag A Tiny Program.
I have copied Ms. Becca Toppin of the Large Pelagics Research Lab at the University of New Hampshire. Becca works wit the Tag A Tiny Program and can provide you with additional information about the program and the ways in which it benefits the ocean.
