April 2026
Matt Mita’s 18” Moi - Good Going and nice release!
Aloha Taggers,
Happy April, with the Kona Lows, we hope everyone is recovering from the substantial amount of water that was brought into our system. We were excited to see taggers out this month and the large female moi starting to show up in the tagging efforts. Thanks to all and the Mita brothers for their effort in tagging some great Moi!
We hope the weather improves and our taggers will be able to get out there as Ulua season officially kicks off.
