Shark (pup) off the rock


Snapperless

Recommended Posts

Hi Raiders,

Fished North Maroubra off the rocks. The whole area had this black moss, weed growing everywhere. Rock plates a must. Using squid for bait, caught two undersized snapper, which were quickly sent back.

Next cast, resulted in a solid run and a great fight. The ground swell assisted in washing this shark onto the rocks. He was hooked in the jaw and could not bite the line.

Not sure what type of shark, weight about 8-10 kg.

Nice catch. Think I caught the same type of shark yesterday morning from the beach. Released mine but would be interested if anyone does know what type of shark it is, and whether it's any good to eat. Noted that mine had smooth grey skin and very fine small teeth in the short time it was out of the water.
