I just got the letter in the mail that an 86" sand tiger I caught & tagged at Davis/Cape Lookout in April 2017 was caught at Egg Harbor NJ June 30 2019. A female, & she's grown to 92 inches.
I thought it was pretty cool & they sent me a nice hat!
Yep that's the exact hat.
And yes, it was a great feeling, knowing the shark survived. I've tried to handle them with care & work fast but the six & seven foot sharks aren't built for their weight to be unsupported in shallow water & I've been concerned about my captures' recovery.
I've gotten into carp angling this past year and large carp are the same.
Precisely why I went to an 80# drum leader............
