 Awesome!!!
What you really need is a 300 Winchester Magnum. That is the best caliber on the planet, probably even in the solar system and maybe the universe.
Go get him! Shoot him in the face!

What yal use for bait and hooks? The bait and hooks we use really depends on the time of year what is in the surf the type and size of shark we are targeting. The hooks are normaly 15/0 to 20/0 mustad circle hooks. We tend to match the size of hook to the size of bait we are using and the size of sharks we are targeting. The bait is usually what is prominant in the surf, stingray jack cravelle mullet pompano mullet sheephead lady fish whiting and whatever else is dominant in the surf.

Nice fish...the biggest shark I've ever caught is an 8' dusky back before it was illegal to catch them. I've hooked a 15' 1500lb Great White off of Guadalupe Isle, Mexico but you can't even say I fought it. We were tuna fishing and the Great Whites would often eat one of the 75lb yellowfin we were fighting leaving nothing but a cloud of red blood. They really put on a show when they'd take a tuna on the surface that had bit a bait on the kite.
I watched one take my line as I was using a live squid for bait we had caught the night before. I went around the length of the 100' boat a few times with it for fun but never really "fought" it. I don't think it either new it was hooked or cared. It was just circling the boat waiting for the next hooked tuna to eat.
