World record shark?

#1 Postby O Town » Thu May 07, 2009 7:35 pm

After seeing Cat5s other topic it reminded me of seeing this on the news this morning.
Bucky Dennis of Port Charlotte in southwest Florida caught the hammerhead in Boca Grande, near Tampa, Tuesday morning.

Amazingly, he managed to reel in the 1,060-pound shark all by himself.

Dennis has three months to send paperwork to the International Game Fish Association in order to determine if the hammerhead is really a record breaker.

Check out the video, that thing is huge!!!!
