Gone Fishin’

 

Catching that first fish is a proud moment, and in Horry County on Tuesday, Sarah Brame was about to have her experience when it was interrupted by a somewhat larger fish.

As she worked to reel in her redfish in Cherry Grove Inlet, a bull shark estimated at five feet and more than 200 pounds jumped at Sarah’s fish – chomping it like bait and clearing the hook.

As Brame told WPDE’s Ryan Naquin, “I was actually kinda scared ‘cause I seen it jump and I was like, ‘Oh my gosh. It could jump up here and get me,’ because the tide was all the way up, and it was probably three feet below me.”

What’s the state’s limit on catching bull sharks?
