...caught with his bare hands???

Where in BMB and time of day? A big 'ol chocolate Lab named Yogi walks me every morning along BMB near 83 access...and he doesn't want his daddy nibbled on the toes by that kinda fish!

It looks like it bit his face off!!!

Who is the MAN or idiot who removed the hook? lol.

Your siggy under that picture makes it look like a caption--an appropriate caption, at that!

this shark was caught on the 9th of may at about 8am, with a surf rod at the east end of blue mtn by the lake drain. It took about 45 minutes to land, the toughest fish fight I have witnessed on this beach. You just had to respect this shark even though its the bad boy of our waters. It was released. I didn't catch it but took the picture. The fisherman was a tourist. He was kind enough to send the picture. I blocked his face, its about the fish!

He used Panned Chicken for bait.:funn:Hey Jack where is the picture of the man eating Manatee?

I can imagine the amazment. Surf fishing for pomp's or sheepshead and coming up with a shark and a 45 min. fight.

I watched a guy who had what we believe was a shark a few weeks back at Ed Walline Park. He had 90 pound line on and a steel leader and that fish was trashing that poor guy standing on the beach trying to haul it in. After about 20 minutes of swimming toward shore and then making screaming line dragging runs, finally bit through the leader. He had caught it right near dusk. It was a rush to watch the battle.

Thanks for taking the pic and telling us the story, Jack S. It is about the fish. You were wise in your picture editing. Just having a little fun. Your efforts are appreciated.

That looks big enough to cause some serious damage. But glad it was released.

How did that shark not cut his line? I thought only steel leaders prevented that.

I hooked into a stingray one time, totally unexpected, and swore that I had a shark on the line. That sucker pulled like we were in a tug of war, and it was a small stingray. I'm not sure what a shark on the line feels like, but I'm fine not knowing.

Nice picture, Jack. Thanks for sharing. If the man who caught it is reading this, please know that I was just kidding about who took the hook out of the shark's mouth. I thought it was greenroomsurfer.
