Catch and Release -- Veteran angler George Craig of Elizabeth City caught a large TARPON (megalops atlantica) this morning just after 10 a.m. and fought it for an hour and 13 minutes. In the end, the big fish swam away unharmed. "I'm glad the fish lived, I'm very glad about that," he said. Craig thanked several of his fellow experienced anglers, Jacob Barlow and Taylor Bandy, for all of the effort they put into assisting the fight. The pair estimated that the fish probably weighed inbetween 100 to 130 pounds. It's been years since Haynes Courtney landed one half that size and Craig landed that one. Today's fish was caught off the southeast corner on the end, made its awy around the entire length of the pier on the northside and then went back out and around to the southside for another run. Eventually it went under the pier on the northside and the guys had to drop the landing net on the south side.
