If you mean 26-28 pounds, it was either a shark or a big bluefin.
If you mean inches, could have been one of those, or a chopper bluefish.

What a waste of a nice fish

Life is like a poop sandwich, the more bread you've got, the less poop you taste.

I was running along side the stone dike in Buzzards Bay in about 20 feet of water,
The fish was inches not pounds.

Well, that eliminates the bluefin 
Maybe a brown shark, or maybe a big bluefish. |

Clean in half ? Two pieces ? Circular bite marks ?
There are at least 10 - 15 sharks that could be responsible for that as well as 10-15 THOUSAND potential power boat props.
But you Know you were there. It was definetly a bite ?
I saw so many sand dogs cuising the beach yesterday it was amazing.
It was as if they were grubbing along at the waters edge.

I saw a titleist shark heading out of the gut and it was foggy... I think titleist sharks must like the fog.
