Watch your backs boys.

A rare catch of a great white shark documented and posted to YouTube is likely the first time the species has been caught from a beach in Alabama, a leading shark researcher says.
J. Marcus Drymon, assistant extension professor at Mississippi State University and a leading shark expert, confirmed Tuesday that the early morning March 6 catch by anglers in Orange Beach was exactly what they expected -- a great white shark.
This is likely the first great white shark caught from the beach in Alabama.

Probably what kept stealing my sand fleas last time I fished down there.

And these clowns fishing on the beach are just drawing them in closer.
Nothing like trying to enjoy your beach vacation while some dude is casting into the middle of my skip-ball game

I agree. Never really see them catch anything either. People who can't relax on vacation.

Oh my, you just added another thing to Tuthilltiger's list of shite he frets about.

They are already there. To think otherwise is foolish.

First “land based” catch of a great white.
What a misleading article. So they been caught before but just never from a beach.

If a fisherman throws out a hook with a piece of bait on it, and catches a shark, it's because the shark was already there.
There's an old saying you may not have heard- "You can't catch a fish that isn't there"
It's not like these fishermen are pouring in buckets of blood and chum on the beach to drawn them in. They walk out to the beach, toss out a piece of bait on a hook, and if a shark is there, it might bite it.

This might be the most anti-Outdoor post I have ever seen on the Outdoor Board. You probably saw this topic on the "What's New" tab and thought you were on the OT Lounge. If I were a mod here, I'd ban you from this particular forum. But I'm not. So here you are.

I’ve seen videos in Florida of surf fishermen that will use a kayak to get a bait way further off shore, where the deep water boys and girls swim, then they’ll reel them in to the shore.

Never catch a damn thing. Enjoy your ultra out there.

I never understood those games. Yall can play those games in the middle of a field near Columbus Ohio. Why spend all the money to visit the beach and create all that ruckus? Some of us want to drink beer and stick our feet in the water, or catch what's in the water.

Turns out that no one is ever truly content at the beach.

One of the most scary nights of my life. 19 years old, beach shark fishing at 2 AM, paddling 5lbs of bloody bonita past the second sandbar. Canoe is filled with blood and we flip it on a breaker. Deeper than we can touch. We somehow unswamped the boat and got back into it in record time. I really have no idea how we did it in the pitch dark, in the waves. All adrenaline, I guess.
