Holy cow Paul! Not exactly your run of the mill flounder, cod or bass! What kind of shark is it? Did you net catch it? How long to drag it in? I'd be careful picking it up!

Cool pix, even if it is on a tank forum!

Hi Gill.
Yes she was hauled into the boat as carefully as possible measured and pics taken then slipped back into the sea unharmed and we have pics of her going back in.
Cheers Paul :wink:

Paul,
Never heard of a Tope? Is that a species name or local description?

I'm glad to hear you put it back too. :shock: Although I'm amazed that it would even let you pick it up!

Great advertizing Tim!
