TOOTHY
made a solo trip to cyp. point saturday 9-8-12, but soon as i stepped out of my truck i was greeted by a 10mph s.w. wind, too much for me and my lil boat so i headed down the road to the east side of the bay, tried to fish the kitchen but swells were too big, stopped in one spot and threw out a line started to set up the next one but already had a bite on the first one, thought it was going to be on, but after pulling in hardhead after hardhead after gaftop it was time to move, so i beat the east bank of cote blanche bay, caught about a dozen redfish, with the biggest one measuring a wopping 11inches, caught some big croaker and a couple small ones, i only kept one small one for cut bait, stopped at another spot threw out a half croaker and shortly after along came toothy, took a pic and set him free, looked like a bull shark, but i am not sure, i just know it wasn't the typical sand shark or black tip i normally catch in the area, was only about 3-1/2foot but thick, he fought strong for a short period but he wore out quicker than the other sharks i have caught
