Nice Catch

Got a call from Dayton Domingo.. he caught a peacock bass weighing 6 pounds that had one of the yellow tags. Dayton was using a medaka as live bait "over near the dam". (I'm thinking Kemoo Farm area)
Peacock Bass #3354 was tagged by Mike Leong at Morgans Pt. on Sept 8, 2007... 1441 days ago... almost 4 years. When it was tagged the fish was 15 inches long. According to fish growth charts a 6# peacock should measure about 27 inches... that is big. Growing 12 inches in 4 years. WOW!
It's 0.75 miles travel distance from Morgans Pt to Kemoo Farm.
Congratulations Dayton and thanks again for helping with our bass tagging program. Can't wait to see the pictures.
