**The only usable tail shot of the second shot is misleading because the measuring tape was stretched past his head so we decided not to post it. One of our team members had to leave for work, so we had a person on the beach take the pictures for us for the second shark. Unfortunately, photography was not this individuals strong point. In the picture, the shark measured 108 inches but we subtracted 7 inches off due to the over stretch.

Angler: Graig Guccione
9'3" Great Hammer Head
Pretty sure she taped out at 9'6" but the rough water screwed up our tail shot, and washed away our Gatorade Bottle. I could have held the tape to the tail better but I made sure not to touch the tail in the photo to avoid the stretch. She would have been longer but she had the nubbiest of tails.
