South Carolina fisherman hooks a giant hammerhead!
HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. - A massive hammerhead shark was caught off the coast of South Carolina.
It likely would’ve set records, but the crew that caught the apex predator decided to release it back into the water, according to“It was like, ‘Oh my gosh, we’ve got a killer whale or a hammerhead on, this is nuts,’” he said.“We saw this fish actually the day before, and I couldn’t get her to eat,” Michalove said.“I had some customers in from Virginia that were really really experienced and I knew that black tips or any type of mackerel, they weren’t going to be impressed with that,” he said.
Once they caught it, which Michalove said felt like hooking a submarine, the hammerhead dragged the boat for four miles. When they finally corralled it, the records were an afterthought. “I love these sharks, they’ve given me a great life,” Michalove said. “If it wasn’t for them I don’t know where I’d be, so if I can do something to help them I’m happy to do it.”“It’s just one of those things that take you a couple of days to recover from,” he said.“I mean, this is a fish that’s probably cycled through this area for probably 20 or 30 years so there’s a pretty decent chance she’ll be back,” he said.
