On 5/19/08 during a day off on the water Shark lab staff (Jim Barley, Emily Marcus, Sean Williams and Eva Solomon) teamed up with Bimini Sands Staff (Grant Johnson and Katie Grudecki) to catch this 10.5 foot female Tiger Shark by hand, in the waters near Bimini Bahamas. This should not be tried at home and in NO WAY was this shark harmed.

Another beast caught and released in June of 2009 off Hilton Head. The shark fishery here is incredible. We're no more than a mile off the beach and catching man eaters daily. A 4 hour charter is all that is needed to battle one of these monsters! www.outcastfishing.com
