No other info except the picture. I went down to DiGiglios to see if they knew about it but they were closed.

Pretty sure that's a Sand Tiger.

There was a 6 footer in the lavallette surf today right in the wash. Didnt get the ID of what kind but defenitly kept people out of the water.

During the Elks Fluke tourney we were off of the Mansaquan reef and spotted a shark, thought to be as small Great White but not confrmed. A bit south but they travel.....

By no means an expert...yet....but doesn't the sand tiger have a more rounded front? And teeth appear to be different? Dorsal fin does appear to be back further and equal fin size in back.....characteristic of sand tigers
