This is the 200+ lb., 7 ft. sandbar shark that was caught a couple weekends ago. Again, shark was released alive and well. I posted the 2nd one a couple weeks ago.
Nice catch, but why do you put them in the boat with you? A shark that size that is alive and well can seriously injure both you and your boat. As well as itself. Not complaining, your choice, just trying to keep all of your limbs attached That thing can flip around and bite that man in the orange shirt’s leg off in a heartbeat.

Thanks for the safety concern, Larry. Not our first rodeo with these big boys and if there isn’t a pic, then it didn’t happen. We are always on high alert with these mighty beasts and know our escape route…even if it jumping in the drink!!!

Good nuff and nice fish Not something the average fisherman should probably do though. There are those who know how and can, and those who don’t and think it might be a good idea. Then there is this fellow we call Pegleg

We just take pics of them in the water. Easier on them and us both, and it stills happens
