Large white sharks were sighted and tagged less then 500 yards off the beaches of Cape Cod last summer.There seems to be more great white spotted last couple of years off the north eastern states.Graet whites are rightfully protected in the United States and other countries (AUS,S Africa,Mexico)maybe they will pose a threat to bathers in beaches in the coming years.Jaws all over again?

Here's the story

There is a good possibility that this could happen has been more reports of Great Whites in Florida waters over the past year. So who is going to hook one and land one ?

hello guy's.
Well possobly one has been hooked already,and maybe just not landed,but word's of advice if you do happen to land a carcarodon,big or small of any beach, pier,jetty,bridge in florida if you take a pictrure do not show the location or have loose lip's about when and where.otherwise you will never fish that place againg,I GARRANTY IT.fight the urge to let everybody know. deny everything,don't speak to reporters,they are you're worst enemy's.this country is ruled by votes,nad we are still outnumbered 1000 to 1 when it comes to votes,and of those 1000,900 are totally uninformed,and will make an uneducated vote.the day they try to link a shark attack to beach fishing,we are going to have a fight on our hand's.so show of fish,only to those in the same boat.to guy's who will keep it to themselves.if a reporter comes calling ask what his ententions are,you know why they call lawyer's shark's,well they chase a client to hospital and sue to get paid for chasing,they don't care who they sue.the close cousing of the shark i mean lawyer is the reporter if he don't sell paper's he doe's not get paid, so you tell me wictchone will sell more copy's,shark attack or caught and realesed,maybe william is right we need to act more like Quint,no need to bragg.i would believe you on just you're word that you did catch and realesed one.if you lied it's you're name that sink's.and i for one won't share the beach with you.NO CITY HAND'S HERE.

I have thought the senerio over and it all depends if people see the fish. If someone outside of the crew shows up the fish has gota swim. As far as publicising ya pics or video, like the rod said not a good idea. Maybe if they start messing with us about sharkin of the beach, then we ask the beach athorities if they would like to see a white shark skid up on there beach on utube. We keep our secret if we left alone. I got one of a 450lb mako skiding up on the beach and kept it to my self cause i ant been mesed with and dont want to hurt tourism in the area. Ya wanta be popular join a band.
