Nice shot of a Koya Bullet nose job. Sat tagged the fish with an archival tag that will pop up 240 days from now. The fish should be on its way back to Hawaii by then. Let’s see where she goes.

Thank you everyone for all your good wishes on our fish. Mat Kyle and I really appreciate it. Special thanks and congrats to our boats owner John for all his support.
