Wow that pic with the shark vertical is amazing stuff!
That is awesome!
that fish has some hops. wow on a fly rod
awesome
You don't see that every day.
Never heard of catching a shark off a fly rod but seems a little too daring for me... especially when it is leaping out of the water like that. I do not think I would like to have a shark flying at me and/or landing on me. If I do ever go, I will make sure too bring an extra pair of briefs.
Geeeze! That looks like an experience of a lifetime!
I've had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Dave Trimble we put together a little video of the experience:
