This shark was caught by a firefighter in the Aransas bay. The waters are only about 8' deep in the bay. He caught it on a Friday afternoon 5/18/07. They had to store the fish in the walkin cooler at Fishermans Wharf until a scale arrived. It is a new state record and bay record 513lbs!!! They couldn't get it in the boat. I took two hours just to tow the shark to the boat ramp after beight caught.

Geeese Louweeese, All the wade fishermen owe that guy a bottle of Johnny Walker! I guess I need to to stay in the boat from now on. I've fished those waters for years. Congrats to Capt and angler!
