I'd say that is a great picture of the last supper

blackcloud9 · 09-26-2011, 07:14 PM

looks distinctly like a GWS.

i dont get it? great white on a dock dead with a seabass in its mouth? where did this picture come from?

RK · 09-26-2011, 07:27 PM

commercial boat gill net oceanside.
what dont you get the shark ate the seabass, both died in a gillnet, game over....

fishsouthcounty · 09-26-2011, 07:33 PM

well now that its been established that they both came from a gillnet....it makes some sense. either way i dont see a great white getting caught in a gillnet and holding on to the seabass all the way to dieing and being brought to dock like that.

I caught a baby GWS (30-LBS) off of LJ in July..the ugliest mouth I've ever seen. Where was mom? Any guys in sophisticated stealth boat missing?

Cant the commercial boat be held liable, since you know....GWS are endangered and all?

Deamon · 09-27-2011, 04:08 AM

There's a bit of filet remaining, ummm...can I have it?

I don't think so Drake. Incidental catch. I wonder how many other protected species get wrapped up in those nets

Siebler · 09-27-2011, 07:41 AM

From what I recall it is expected that a certain number of while sharks will be caught in gill nets each year. Those that dont make it are taken to institutes for research on the species. I also seem to recall certain institutes having permits to kill X-amount of sharks a year for same reason.

White sharks are Federally protected however it is not international. Fines for killing them even vary state by state. Its kind of a weird one really.

GregAndrew · 09-27-2011, 02:57 PM

I did not realize that there was still commercial gill netting in Ca. I had thaought that was done for long ago. But I saw some info on it on the DFG site.

You mean as a recreational fisherman, I can only use x # of hooks, rods, and have only x number of legal fish in possession. . .

But the commercial guys can kill'em all without repercussion?

We need stronger voice.
