Well let me be the first to repost on that monster f'n bull!!! Great job!!!

all i have to say is good job to all teams competing and so far there has been some monster sharks caught this is starting to look like a good year.

I spoke to Mojo and he is deeply sorry as I am but I want everyone to know that we value your participation ,YOUR COMMENTS , in this thread and in all threads.Mojo has done a wonderful job over the last several years on this site always vigilant of spam and other unacceptable content but he overstepped his boundaries on this one and committed an ERROR-we are all human and these things happen .Again my sincere apologies.

PLEASE DON'T SHY AWAY FROM COMMENTING.

This is a tourney. We understand there are fluff "attaboys" postings. Hard work is always appreciated when it's recognized. Mojo was right in what he did to cut the fat, IMO. It didn't in any way diminish the contributions of the team efforts shown thus far... Our team hasn't hit your sands yet. We are very excited to be a part of BHC. Hopefully we will see some nice toothies!!! I have always held the ideal that the overall fishing experience, win or lose, outweighs any output in competitive fishing. Fish hard, do your best, and let the chips fall where they may...We have several talented teams for this gala. I'm happy for everyone here, regardless of placement or reward. We are shark fisherman. That alone separates the men from the boys pretty quick in one statement, doesn't it ? Thanks Will for being responsive. I think it was meant in a good way. My .02

That is a monster bull congrats, very similar to Pete's 9ft 2incher caught earlier this year!

again I just wanna go ahead and say that in the couple of weeks that this tourney has been going there have been quite a few monsters caught already. Thats a heck of a job guys. Cant wait to see what the next couple of weeks bring...

Looks like there are some Data Base issues.
I hope that the backup were made in time.

looks like the fishing is heating up will be fishing all weekend see yall monday GET ER DONE to all

Tonight A massive hammerhead shark was caught and succesfully released by a west coast team i wrote about earlier today.Rememmber I always said that giant hammerhead sharks 13 feet ,14 feet and even bigger could be caught from shore by the right prepared teams and tonight I have been proven right.For years the east coast was always the dominant force in this tournament then last year the panhandle was well represented By Team Tooth Fairy's Ernie Polk with the winning shark a behemoth 11 ft 9 inch very pregnant Tiger shark.All well but i always believed that massive hammers could outperform any Tiger shark no matter how large -this was the impetus for this tournament and tonight we have been VINDACATED.
FINALLY A WEST COAST TEAM MUCH FURTHER SOUTH THEN THE PANHANDLE HAS STEPPED UP TO REPRESENT THE BIG HAMMER CHALLENGE AND IT'S BEST SHARK FISHERMEN IN FLORIDA .THE AMAZING STORY ,THE PICS AND THE ADVENTURE WILL BE POSTED HERE TOMMOROW.

Greg(Mojo) has been a tireless servant of https://www.southfloridasharkclub.com who has put much time and effort to assure that this site is clean and free of garbage.He has worked tirelessly for this site and I truly believe he meant well by cleaning up the fat as Charkbait indicated but I was shocked when I saw everyones input disappear--I live and breathe this tournament and to me and the BHC staff viewer participation is important regardless of the the small talk that often deviates from the central theme of the tourney-we welcome it all if it's in good taste and respectful .

Whatever damage Mojo caused can never be compared to all the good the man has done over the years representing this site ,it's anglers,and the South Florida Shark Club.

What data base issue just human error BUD!!!!Like the sleeping air traffic contoller

I had to read this 3 times to realize what was caught.

Are we talking here now about two sharks? One 12'10" and one 14' as William mentioned in his post? If so, BHC is trully heating up!

Props to our Man Boy Rico, I know he thought he was gonna fall over dead a couple times! That fish wouldve pulled my skinny ass across the water with that 14 locked down! Cant say enough about how hard the whole team has been fishing! Dont know what was better though the fight or watching her swim off just as pissed as she came in lol. This is what keeps us coming back, and despite the broken finger she gave me during the release I'll be right back out tryin to hook a bigger fish!
