A shark got to this one before he made it to the boat.

Didn't see the shark, as that fish was one the other boat was reeling in. But they didn't see it either -- too dark. The local guy said it was likely a bull shark. Had to be a big one...

Great pictures Hal. You and Derek did a great job on whipping those drum!(and a few skates and rays as well) Hope We get some more of those pork rinds next time too! Man they were good.
