So I was walking to my car in the parking lot after grabbing a bite to eat and came across a shark.
Yea you read that right.
A SHARK.
The guy that caught this thresher shark caught two of them today! The first one weighed in at 200 pounds. The one pictured below weighed in at a whopping 455 pounds!
Here’s the first sight that caught my attention as I was walking to my car. How strange is it to see a shark tail on the sidewalk?
Here’s a full body shot of the thresher shark

I asked the guy how he caught it. He said it was a simple hook and line procedure. He said it took a few hours to bring this guy in.

If you go to the beach, be wary of going out too far! This shark was found 5 miles from the San Diego coast. Pretty interesting to see this! I tried touching it and it feels like rubber. Awesome experience without having to go to Sea World! I feel kind of kawawa for him.
