I do not know if any of you saw the fishing program a few weeks ago about radio tagging great white sharks off of Cape Cod this past summer. They had tagged a half dozen. One of the sharks that were tagged was located off of Jacksonville Florida.

I thought the tags were to stay attached for a year......is this a case of premature ejection?

Wow, Thats pretty cool. They are more prevalent than most think out east. We see them on a regular basis.

The tags are still on the shark, a satelite picked up the radio beacon
