Record: 458-pound blue shark Rockport MA

AMESBURY, Mass. -- An Amesbury teen broke a record after reeling in a 458-pound blue shark.
It took Ethan Lynch more than a half hour to reel in the largest shark on record off the coast of Rockport.
"I had no idea if it was a tuna or what, but then someone on the tuna tower yelled ‘Oh my God, It’s a shark,’ and I got to the side of the boat and realized this is a big, big fish,” said Lynch.
Lynch, 15, used cod as bait to reel in the 12-foot, 458-pound shark. He caught it while aboard the Erica Lee 2 as part of the Coastal Discoveries Marine Education Camp. The camp lets kids explore the waters and creatures in them, but no one was ready for the catch.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

That's a Big blue shark!
We had a Giant one in the slick a few years ago but couldn't get it to eat.
