13-year-old Texas boy catches nearly 900-pound shark in Port Aransas during offshore trip
A 13-year-old boy caught an 11-foot, 6-inch, nearly 900-pound tiger shark during a recent 36-hour offshore trip in Port Aransas, according to an employee from the charter boating company the teenager was on. The 13-year-old is from Weatherford, which is about 29 miles west of Fort Worth.
Stacy Springer, an employee with Dolphin Dock Deep Sea Fishing, told mySA.com the large tiger shark was reeled in by the young angler, Micah Harless, and his father Robbie during their 36-hour trip that ended Monday morning. The charter boat had around 14 people on board, she said.
Springer said the fight between the angler and the shark took five hours, adding that others on the boat helped the 13-year reel it in.
The tiger shark weighed approximately 844 pounds and the meat was split between the people that were on the charter boat, Springer said.

for a few shark burgers. 
I never hauled in anything near that big, although I once had something on my line that my tackle was no match for. I think it might have been a submarine.
