Our friend Tony B took these pics (more on fb) of a shark they caught Wednesday about 20 miles out. They of course released it but kept the large groupers they caught. Just thought you may want to see it. In one pic you can see the remora sucker fish on the underside

What did they estimate the weight at? Beautiful animal, nice that they released.

Mako is great eating. Just saying. It's rare to get one to the boat without it releasing itself.

I see BI in the background... I heard that area is rife with life!!! This is why we need that CC so we can get out there and SEA the world. I assume they were trolling tuna plugs or wahoo rigs or something????

Definitely not a grander Mako but so sick. The F22 of the shark world.
