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

Re: Shark caught in Sea Bright
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

Re: Shark caught in Sea Bright
I agree with the majority. It's probably a Sand Tiger. The dorsal fins are the give-away. A Great White has one big dorsal and a very small adipose fin. Still, must have been a shocker to see it coming in..

The adult’s body is light brown to gray above and paler below. Young sand tigers often have small, dark spots that may fade as the animals mature. Regardless of what kind it is, I have to agree it must have been a shocker when it hit the beach. No more swiming for me  |
