Another fish story :)
Associated Press - October 15, 2007 5:13 AM ET
DESTIN, Fla.Now that's a fish! Six friends went to a Florida fishing tournament looking to catch some grouper. What they landed instead was an 844-pound mako shark. It was a record catch for the decades-old Destin Fishing Rodeo. 1 of the fisherman said the more than hour-long struggle with fish was tense. His mate said the 11-foot shark with a mouthful of huge teeth "was like jaws." It wouldn't fit in their boat so they had to to tie it with ropes to the stern for the four hour trip through the Gulf back to shore.
This could have been the one that got away, but it didn't!
Only story I could find with a pic. Read story, see pic here

LOL..That's why I posted a few links, tried to locate a pic.
You can see they cut the line.
Also, the fish had to be tied off to the transom and towed in!!
