Say "See Ya Later II" Another Big Beautiful Shark
The crew of the aptly named See Ya Later II killed and brought in a 1063-pound Short-fin Mako Shark off the coast of Pensacola, Florida. The incident is now under investigation. Unfortunately, it isn't a murder investigation, but a world record investigation. If they pass the strict criteria of the small-dicked International Fish and Game Association, they will be certified as the record holders for catching a Short-fin Mako on 30-pound tackle. Hooray!!! Then maybe their small dicks will grow a collective inch.

Small-dicked illiterate Hemingway wannabes who have never read any Hemingway like to murder big animals. P.S. The dead Mako in this picture is actually bigger than 1063 pounds, but it was caught on bigger tackle.
Read more about the 1063-pounder.
Let's all hope that the little Great White that was released by the Monterey Bay Aquarium is faring better than that Mako. Researchers are on the way to the Sea of Cortez to look for the Great White's fin tag as I write this.
Read about the little Great White.
In much happier news, a 24-year old surfer was bitten on the hand by a smallish shark while he was paddling in off of New Smyrna Beach, Florida. Man, those little Floridian sharks always got the munchies.
Read about munchy little sharks.

Drop the Shark, Asshole!!!
Don't let anyone show you their captain's log,

Can you believe this?!?! Here is a quote from the article I read:
"That's when the fish went crazy," said Paul Sims, a Valparaiso man who was on the Mother Lode. "We don't even think she knew she was foul-hooked."
Sharks are amazing creatures and deserve respect. (no, Sharky, I'm not trying to kiss your anal fin) But to murder this beautiful, massive animal is sickening. They better not cross me while I'm holding a gaff.
As for the murder charge, we'll have to work on legislation preventing the unnecessary killing of an unarmed (unlegged as well) shark. I am sure I would be arrested for gaffing one of these fishermen at the dock, although it would be worth it.
Here's to you and your kind, Sharky.
leave these poor sharks alone or else
GOT IT!
