I’m enjoying watching Mary Lee’s travels like everyone else. The idea that she could be caught on a rod and reel is laughable. 130 lb. class rig would be ultra light tackle. If caught it would be after a long fight and probably would kill her. I hope nobody tries this; leave her alone and enjoy the show.
I was showing the wife the tracking charts. The speed she has is amazing. Probably never get the wife to swim in salt water again. She’s got to be taking in lot’s of calories to keep spending that kind of energy.
Here’s the thing. Out of our huge big blue ocean this crew manages to tag a couple. Just how many more and how close are those to our shore line? No way this is a fluke to have these two off our coast.
You can clearly see the half-circle chunk missing from her dorsal on the website (http://sharks-ocearch.verite.com/).
