Hello all,
We are planning to deploy the 14 deepwater buoys in the Hilton's Texas FAD Network in mid-January!
They span 160 nm between FAD 1 to FAD 14 and will provide more options for Texas bluewater fishermen as well as bring the bluewater fishery within reach of chart boats and center consoles.
We are working with the Gulf Research Institute for Highly Migratory Species from Texas A&M Galveston and deploying scientific instrumentation on selected FADs (underwater time lapse cameras and acoustic transponders) and have made the necessary adjustments to accommodate those instruments. We will be posting up the photos from the time lapse cameras and other pertinent information on the www.TexasFads.com website.
Best,
Tom
