Mahi Mahi Migration. In the ocean there lives a fish known as the Mahi Mahi. Very little is known to science about how they migrate. Fishermen are helping scientists study their migration by catching Mahi Mahi with fishing rods, placing fish tags in them, and releasing them back to the wild with hope that their fish will be re-caught with the tag still in them. By using this method, fishermen in the Atlantic Ocean have marked and released 15,499 Mahi Mahi and reported 420 recaptures.
