Our recapture of a tagged white marlin caught aboard underdog was recently featured in a billfish foundation press released. 

 
"This white marlin was tagged on 9/2/13 by Captain Patrick Kelly and angler Matthew Kelly aboard "Megabite" off Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. But they forgot to... send in the tag data card. 1453 days later, the crew on "Underdog", Jake Boltz, Robert Mudgett, and Capt. Jake Hiles contacted us to let us know that they had recaptured the fish, but we didn’t have any of the original tag information. Well, luckily, the Megabite crew still had the card laying around and we were able to put some of the pieces of the puzzle together. We don’t know exactly where it went in those four years, but it was recaptured a straight line distance of 183 nautical miles from where it was originally tagged. Thanks to all parties involved for supporting billfish conservation and taking part in the Tag & Release Program, and thanks to 20Echo, Casa Vieja Lodge, Costa Sunglasses, Garmin, King Sailfish Mounts, Pelagic, and YETI."

So far the 2017 charter fishing season in Virginia Beach has been great. On our inshore charters over the last couple of days we have seen excellent charter fishing for sea bass, we have caught both red drum and cobia while sight fishing off the Virginia Beach oceanfront, and today we caught a really nice mess of spadefish. It is very early in the season, but there is already great fishing in Virginia Beach and it is only getting better by the day. We look forward to a great charter fishing season in Virginia Beach out of the Virginia Beach fishing center at rudee inlet and we hope to see you out fishing with us on an inshore or offshore fishing charter. Give captain Jake a call today to book your charter fishing reservation at 7577496008. Thanks!
