The Red was first released on 30-Sep-04. He was 23.5 inches long and was 2 years old. He was released only 39 miles from the pier at Cape Romain @ Muddy Bay @ Oyster Bay entrance.
He was caught in the same area 208 days later and was 26 inches in length.
When I caught him, he was 11 years and 2 months old and was 37 inches.
Thats cool as hell. I hope some of my tagged fish are caught after that much time!

Crazy to think those fish can be that old!
You should see the info on some reds that reach much larger and older age. They are ancient!
Oldest on record is just over 40 years old!
That’s awesome
