In Response To: Re: Shark attack (Gary Gibson)

I hate sharks. Wrote an article for our big game fishing club newsletter years ago about what a pain in the butt they were, always taking bites out of my marlin, and how to control them. Control measures centered on an H&R Topper single barrel 12 gague and a 3" hi-brass shotgun slug. Gave detailed instructions on how to get the shark's head just out of the water before blowing them to smithereens. Ruger RedHawk .44 Mag. revolver with 6" barrel works too. But the slug does the job much better and does not splatter as many guts on the boat.

Some club member's reaction to my article was the typical tree hugger reaction - I ended up quitting the club over it. Screw them, they were fishing for money anyway. The only good shark is a dead shark.
