Potential World Record Mako Shark Caught on Gulf Coast Beach
Here’s a bit of advice to any angler who catches a potential record-breaking fish and wants to keep it hush-hush: don’t leave the fish draped out in the back of a pickup truck while making a pit stop for gas in broad daylight.
Florida anglers Earnie and Joey Polk learned that lesson the hard way this week after they teamed up to land an incredible 11-foot long, 805-pound shortfin mako Tuesday night. They wanted to keep the catch a secret, but the shark exceeded their pickup’s bed capacity. A protruding dorsal fin and tail draped over an open tailgate attracted onlookers when the cousins stopped for fuel. A candid photograph of Joey at the pump landed on Facebook and has since gone viral.
Though the cousins told the Pensacola News Journal they’re keeping the exact location of their catch a secret, they did reveal that they hooked the shark off a Gulf Coast beach around 10:30 p.m. and fought it for about an hour before bringing it to shore.
