Lately on my boat with every tuna we have been bleeding out and swimming behind the boat , and we are thinking eventually a shark is going to come into our slick and have an easy meal !

I think I like this one best

Didn't know to laugh or cry

Great to hear it was Tom King - he's a real gentleman and keeper of the sport.

If it eats seals in the cape we should have let it swim.I would have also enjoyed a 2-3lb steak.Nice catch!

I thought only great whites ate seals?

The Sears family seem to be gifted lately. Greg won a boat last year tuna fishing and this year his son is famous for helping haul in the biggest shark...awesome :-)

That family can fish. That is one hell of an accomplishment to land that beast. Makos are one mean nasty creature. Congrats to Tom and Taylor. Supposedly there is an even bigger one out there roaming a little further north than where he was landed.

Wow what a catch! Congrats!
I think all the whackos come out of the woodwork to make those stupid comments. I hope it doesn't put a damper on his joy.
He broke a record, just like in every other sport. Good for him!
