A couple of New Brunswick salmon travelling all the way to the shores of Greenland and Ireland.
The salmon equipped with satellite pop-off tags making their way from the Miramichi in May and September of last year.
Atlantic Salmon Federation Biologist Graham Chafe tells us the tags transmits for 2-3 weeks as long as the battery lasts.
He says after that its just flowing in the water and it eventually washed up on the shore more than 100 kilometres from where they last knew it was floating.
One tag ended up on a beach in Disco Bay, Greeland and another was found by a family on vacation on a beach in Ireland north of the Shannon River estuary.
Chafe saying this is like finding a needle in a haystack because the tags are small, narrow and thin.
