Aric's Bull Shark (Tricia in white cap & Clifford in red)We went fishing in Belize with the same guides we used last year. Clifford & Eric, who run Uprising Tours, did an awesome job & we had a good time. Everyone who wanted to fish caught something. We also stopped and snorkeled then ate some of our catch on a deserted stretch of beach.
Aric, lucky guy that he is, had just taken over my rod & reel at the back of the boat and immediately hooked this bull shark. It was good challenge on the light tackle we were using and everyone was happy & excited until the shark got closer to actually being landed. That is when Eric got out the club and whacked it a few times to kill it. At that point we were all wondering whatever happened to "catch & release," but were glad to find out that Clifford had an order for 50 pounds of fish & planned to sell it to a local lady who uses shark for her empanadas.
