Did you hook that shark up or did it just swim by? I've had GW's come by checking out my catch occasionally out at DP, little ones.

When the shark is finning the fin color looks like the shiny blue of a mako. But in the under water part it looks pale grayish of a white shark. It also looks on the thick side for a mako. Either way, you got the fish and the shark didn't make any contact. Win-win right there. Congrats. Mike

GSW? Is that for Great Sewer White?

The border between white and the colored portion of a gws is irregular...you were there what did you see?....it is allso much more of a very defined white to darker color border makos' are more of an indistinct gradual color change.The tail shape on makos and gws are very similar but that cut water keel in front of the tail was wider then the dimensions of most mako's i've seen

conclusion......none
guess possible gws but i wouldn't bet the mortgage payment on it

btw that camera work didn't rise to the level of horrible lol

I had a greenback at the bottom in about 85' of water.
