In February I had an opportunity to fish with my favorite group of
anglers from the Keys. For the past 30 years this group of fishermen has
faithfully made it every month to the backcountry to fish. They were
the inspiration for the Coastal Angler Science Team (CAST), the
“original-members” before CAST
officially came to be. For the past two years they have been regularly
scanning their catches for “recaptures” (previous fish we tagged with
internal microchips, “PIT-tags”). This group alone has caught over 30
recaptures, about half of the current CAST totals.
