Record 22 Sharks Tagged & Released

The Shark Brothers & Friends

The objective on this research expedition was simple enough; bait, catch, tag, document and release as many sharks as possible in the 10 hours of beach time we had available over two days. We wouldn't concern ourselves with who rigs, paddles or pulls the fish. This was about numbers, period. It's this kind of fishing and attitude that epitomizes what this sport is all about. In the end, we ended up breaking a world record using this technique; successfully catching, tagging, fully documenting and releasing 22 blacktip and bull sharks for two different research organizations.
