MEGAMOUTH SHARK
HAMMERHEAD SHARK
From the November New Zealand Fishing News. Kydd Pollock was fishing at the base of the Ribbon Reefs in far north Queensland when he hooked a 15' Scalloped Hammerhead. After a fight of 45 minutes, the crew finally caught a glimse of the monster. As the hammerhead neared the boat, an even bigger Tiger Shark attacked the Hammerhead and tore it to pieces. While Kydd was unprepared to judge the size of the Tiger Shark that snacked on the Hammerhead, it goes without saying that the beast was considerably larger than the enormous Hammerhead.
BASKING SHARK
A 9-metre basking shark was caught in a fishing net four kilometres off Hitachi. Weighing in at 4.6 tonnes, it's the largest basking shark specimen ever found in Japan.
The shark, which died soon after capture, will be stuffed and put on display at Aquaworld Oarai.
