Did U slice it up on the boat?.....my understanding is U can not bring it to the dock whole and slice it.....marcino does his while at sea....:)

OOPS ....U did do it on shore.....better check the rules

LANDING RESTRICTIONS62 All sharks must be landed intact with the head, tail, and all fins naturally attached. The shark may be gutted and bled at sea (e.g., by making an incision

I think common sense would dictate NOT cutting it up at sea. I don't know about you but I try and stay on the EP's good side. The shark was 100 percent intact sans guts until it made it home. As you can see by pic 2.

thats what we were going for and just for chits threw out a shark rig waaaaay back. Had just finished setting up and WHAAMMO. After a couple hours we were regretting putting it on a 50

Very Nice whats your procedure for making sure its dead before it comes in the boat?

I poke it with a stick a few times and hope for the best. :P

She was pretty gassed when she got boat side.. Dragged backwards while retrieving the ball. (about 2 miles) then another 20 or so minutes. Nothing but our backs to get her inside the boat and STILL she was chomping.. If it was a mako I would have waited MUCH longer.

You never know for sure so we just treat it as if it can come back to life at any time. You dont want to remember a day you'll never forget for the wrong reasons. ;)
