A bull shark was caught last week from the shore on South beach in Falmouth. Another shark was caught off of a seawall in Hingham Mass hte other day, it was 6' long but I don't know what kind it was. By the way the shark in question in NJ in the early 20th was not a Great White, it was a bull shark. It was caught in the creek. I saw pictures from then, people walking around in their sunday best, carrying sticks of dynamite. A great white was responsible for an attack in New Bedford Harbor, in the 40's or 50's though. A man and his son were swimming out to their moored boat when the son was attacked by the white. A guy who was rowing in a skiff heard the screams and rowed over to help and he observed the shark. Sharks are often fished for off of the south cape beaches. There was an article in On the Water about it not too long ago.
