Man catches 1,262 lbs hammerhead shark

FT. MYERS, Florida- A Port Charlotte fisherman caught a great hammerhead shark near Boca Grande on Tuesday that could be a new world sport fishing record. Fisherman Bucky Dennis was alone on his boat when the animal took the bait, a 25-pound stingray. Dennis said it took five hours to land the great hammerhead shark after it towed their fishing boat 12 miles from Boca Grande Pass. The female great hammerhead was measured at 14.5 feet long and 1,262 pounds, with its hammer measuring more than three feet across.



 
i agree, pisses me off really. why not just tag and release. if they are tagged with electronic tags handed out by game and wildlife, they can be tracked and studied alive.

a shame indeed.
