What a catch! Great white sharks are very uncommon in the Gulf of Mexico. 🦈
After what had been an uneventful several hours, the line began to peel off the Shimano Tiagra 130 fishing reel around 4 a.m.“The Tiagra 130 has a clicker that you could hear from a million miles away and when I heard it going off, I thought that’s the big reel,” Wier explained.Both have caught their share of big sharks from area beaches, but nothing could have prepared them for what was about to happen.
The fishermen quickly turned their focus to releasing the shark as fast as possible and were able to free it 63 seconds later. “This is a very rare event and maybe, if those guys continue to fish from the beach for the next several years and never catch another one like it,” explained Dr. Marcus Drymon with, adding the species is uncommon in this part of the world and especially from the beach.
Drymon said the 10-to-11-foot great white was a juvenile shark, and the cooler waters may have drawn him closer to the beach.
