Mako Shark Fishing




Check this monster Mako Shark out!

If you have dreams of Record Shark Fishing then this is where the bar is set at. This Mako shark is the largest Mako that has ever been caught on a rod and reel.

Angler Billy Silvia hooked this 11 foot 2 inch fork length, with 96 inches of girth, and weighed 1,324 pounds on July 27,1999 at Stellwagen Bank. This shark was brought into Green Harbor in Marshfield, Mass. to be weighed and photographed.

This Mako Shark would have been a new IGFA world record, but unfortunately this massive shark did not qualify because it was fought out of the rod holder.
