Texas fisherman catches 809-pound tiger shark off Port Aransas.
A Texas fisherman has landed an 809-pound tiger shark in the Gulf of Mexico after reeling it in for more than seven hours.
Ryan Spring of San Antonio says he caught the shark on Sunday about 5 miles off Port Aransas. He says the 12-foot, 7-inch shark was about as big as his boat and that it pulled the vessel south for more than 15 miles.
It took about a dozen men to haul the male shark onto the dock. Spring plans to donate meat from the shark to charity.
