So I'm fishing for specs and reds and run across a shark on my line...

What to do?

I don't know what kind it is, etc... Should I land it or just cut and go?

Just tap your foot on the bottom a couple of times...

Depends on size, but needle nose pliers does the trick

Depending on the size, land and eat it. Sharks are tasty

Shark has to be 54" or larger to be legal.

Any time, any shark? That's big to have flopping around the boat.

Gaff it and beat it with a club.

Really? shite, we used to keep the blacktips we caught in Venice all the time. They weren't over 54"
