Angler Denis Rivers was fishing in his home country, Australia and caught an enormous, 10-foot bull shark with an estimated weight of 550 pounds.
Denis Rivers was night fishing alone three miles in Hastings River near Port Macquarie when he hooked the huge bull shark using eel for bait.
The big fish spooled over 400 meters (1,300 feet) of line in one single run.
Denis
needed an hour to get it to the rocks.
Denis
phoned a friend, and had him come down and use his vehicle to pull the bull shark up onto a nearby boat ramp.
After snapping off some photos, Rivers and the others managed to pull the bull shark back into the water and release it.
