I very nervously caught them and snipped a section of their tail fin. Thank God they've recovered... The findings will be written up in a major scientific journal, and when they are I'll post here of course...
Hey Coops that study is it out of Magueyes? La parguera most likely?

Had the opportunity to see the station since I grew up fishing and diving there.
