New Team "Key Sharkers" Lands Biggest Bull Yet(2009)

Got a message from my boss last night and he tells me that the aquarist from the seaquarium said that he saw 4 big bull sharks show up behind the seaquarium when he was dumping bait yesterday. I get excited and call him up and we decide to head to the seaquarium around 3pm. I start heading over there and bring my friend eddie (keysharker) along with me. On our way from school we get a call from my boss that he's tied up in some work so he cant go. Me and eddie go to the seaquarium and look for our favorite aquarist and it turns out its his day off. We head over to the L&H and they dont have any bait.. but i end up buying a 3 lb almaco jack on an IOU basis cuz i realize we dont have any cash on us since we were hoping to get some bait that the sequarium was throwing away. I head back to RSMAS and we walk down the beach toward the seaquarium and sure enough we see the fins. .. and theyre big! I cut the Almaco and put it on the hooks and toss it in the water. They spook the first couple times.. so I put a balloon on and toss it and let the thing float and sure enough we see the bull come and pick the bait up and start running. I set the hook and the 14/0 screams ZZZZZZZZZZZ. I try to fight the fish sitting on the rock but the but keeps sliding so i run over to the beach barely balancing on the rocks as the fish pulls me towards the water. Sitting down in the sand and it makes some really nice runs. About 45 mins up in the fight im loosing some stamina and eddie come up for his turn on the rod. Within 10 mins we see the fin coming in and I get the tail rope ready and shes huge. At least 8 feet.. (we didnt have a measuring tape) also she was the fattest bull that ive ever seen and that head of hers was massive. We kept her in the water to try to keep her alive and well cuz we could tell that she was extremely tire. The pictures really dont giver her justice since her body is partly in the water.. but she was wide.
