Another great day in Hatteras


OK, so we're a day late on the pictures so everyone gets to enjoy photos from yesterday while we give an update from today. We started out the day with a pair of humpback whales that greeted us as we departed Hatteras Inlet. The morning started off well and we got into the fish again early. The fish were particularly feisty today but the team was ready to go after knocking the rust off on the first day. We ended the day with 7 archival tags and two conventional tags deployed. The fish were all in the range of 170-220 pounds, similar to the fish we saw yesterday. There is a good body of fish off Hatteras right now and the weather should be good for the next couple of days so, with a little luck, we should be able to tag a number of fish this coming week. Wish us luck and stay tuned...
