Having shark fished along the Gulf of Mexico most his life, Texas angler Christian Haltermann, 36, recently reeled in his bucket-list catch, a “big fat” female tiger shark weighing about 1,000 pounds, amounting to a personal best.
“The way she ran on, even with that heavy, heavy equipment, I could just tell immediately we had something serious on our hands,” Haltermann told The Epoch Times. “We were over the moon, because we pretty much knew off the bat what we had. I didn’t expect it to be quite that big.”
