I dont remember what kind I had but it tasted similar to tuna with a thicker texture.

I've caught numerous sharks. The ones I've caught the most of are mako sharks. They taste super good. hahaha. I'v also caught thresher sharks. I have only swam with soup fin shark. They were souper timid seeing as how they were about ten feet long and I was barely five foot at the time. I LOVE SHARKS.

As an avid surfer in the 'Shark-bite capital of the world' for the last 15 years [New Smyrna Beach, Fl.] I have to say they're nowhere near the monster their name is famous for.

I've been bit 8 times but none were serious. They see little white hands or feet and think they're bait fish and attempt to feed themselves. Once they realize it's not a fish they let go.

'Course now I reside in Ohio so....
