In trying to turn in my tag, I was put in touch with Nuno Fragoso from the University of New Hamshire by Conch27. While talking to Nuno, he would like you to look at his website www.tunalab.unh.edu This website describes their goals and the research their doing on the bluefin tuna. Their tuna have two tags in them. The first is a bright green spaghitti tag that is from the bill fish foundation. The second one is an implanted archival tag in the belly. He said to keep this fish (not supposed to count againist your limit) and call them @ 603-862-2891 for shipping instruction. Once they get the fish they will send you $500 for your trouble. They have 98 of these fish swimming around the atlantic. Nuno is tracking my tag and once he learns from Spain where, when and how big the bluefin was at the time of release he will let me know. I in turn will share this with ya'll.
