Exclamation State agents think they seized a rare white shark

State fish and wildlife enforcement agents seized a possible white shark from a 33-foot fishing boat returning to the North Shore Marina at Indian River Inlet, officials said today.

The white shark is a protected species.

The juvenile shark measured 66 inches long and weighed 179 pounds.

The shark was caught about 8 miles offshore, officials said in a news release. It was sent to the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration for testing to confirm the species.

If confirmed, the owner and captain of the boat may face federal fines. Officials also said the owner didn’t have a valid highly migratory species permit, which is required, when the boat was boarded on Saturday.

Question

It doesn't sound like anyone knows what kind of shark it is yet. I wonder what they thought they had before they shot it?

8 miles... I wonder where it's momma is?

Two questions come to mind:

1. What kind of reel could you get over 14,000 yards of line on (8 miles) ...okay - you might have to use braid backing.

2. Is Sam man enough to yak a bait 8 miles out and back?
