DW: Fortunate for the shark (and not the man) it was a catch and release...
During his bachelor trip in Pompano Beach, Florida recently groom-to-be Bob Takacs made an extraordinary catch. While fishing with "Mark the Shark," Takacs reeled in a massive 15.5-foot hammerhead shark weighing around 1,200 pounds.
"I never expected to catch something like that," Takacs said in an interview. The owner of the fishing company noted it was one of the largest sharks they've caught in years, adding, "he came over here to fish with Mark the Shark and to catch his dream fish, and he actually did.” In a longstanding tradition, the shark's meat will be donated to the homeless.
