Shark attack, Lake Ponchartrain, it looks like

I was out off the end of lake road in Lacombe last weekend and they had a guy catching black tips regularly and he said he been for a few years since the lake started freshening up a lot. PPT last week was 3.

Said he's also caught bulls out there. It was pretty wild though watching this old dude. Fished with cut mullet and he obviously had watched some shark weeks cause he grabbed it by the tail pulled it out the rocks and flipped it on its back and that bitch went to sleep while he yanked the hook out. Pretty cool stuff. Freaky though since I've lived over here for that long and been in the Tchefuncte regularly hanging at the beach and didn't realize how many of these were in the lake.

That is the third one I am aware of....
The other two predate hurricane Betsy

Laughing at the idiots that think a gar could do that


Many many more sharks in lake than folks realize

Didn't even know they were a threat in Lake P.

That's hardly an attack

It's enough of an attack for me!

I've seen scratches worse

F THAT!

As a kid growing up on the lake. We used to fish for them all the time down at Seabrook.

I remember the pic of that huge shark that was supposedly caught at the beach at the mouth of the Tchefuncte where everybody swims.

Here is the shark.
