Leaving Mote at 6pm, the crew prepares for 12 hours on board, looking to tag sharks in the bay.
Frozen fish was used to attract the sharks; the set ups were checked in rotation throughout the night.
The crew has time to talk about their research, the aquarium, and their lives during the long night on the bay.
The crew gets their first shark of the night.
The crew works more line out for another baited fish.
A viable female is caught and the crew works quickly to attach a tag to her dorsal fin.
This shark and others in the study helped researchers figure out how sharks and dolphins are interacting in the bay.
The team monitors the signal from the tag throughout the rest of the night, hoping to get a ping showing the shark’s location.
