Florida keys boat caught 1200 lb Great White

This massive great white shark was caught in Marathon in the florida keys .It was caught by fisherman fishing one of the offshore humps that hold large schools of amberjack during April and May of every year.Great whites are in our waters not in huge numbers but if you know when and where to fish for them you will find them.It is illegal to kill one in our state but you can catch,take pictures and release them.

Is it still legal to fish specifically for Great Whites? I see this post is from 2008.
I dont think you can specifically target them, but you can fish for big bull sharks (last year you could say tigers or hammers). My dream is to just feel the shear power of an adult GW on my 14 everol.
