Surprise catch of 575-pound tiger shark could shatter world record

Brett Sinclair's recent catch of a 575-pound tiger shark is impressive not merely because of the predator's sheer size, but because it was made on fishing line with a breaking strength of only 13 pounds ... aboard a boat that was not much longer than the fearsome beast.

If the catch is approved by the International Game Fish Assn., it'll become a new world record for the line class, eclipsing the present record by more than 220 pounds. That process could take weeks but Sinclair had been fishing in the Dampier Classic off Western Australia, and competitors are supposed to abide by IGFA guidelines.

Clearly, the angler had been after smaller game. His group was anchored when the shark took the bait, and had to quickly pull anchor and give chase, to avoid having the reel stripped of its line.

"It took hours for the shark to tire," Sinclair, 27, told Perth Now.

    • Brah, they signed Devion Lloyd. Hes a top 5 ILB for the last 2 seasons at Pffffffft. Another off-season of weights for Prince and Nic. Pat Jones is back and hungry . Lee dropped to the 4th round and has skills to be a CB starter. Thor is coming back.  Tre'von Moehrig is the second best defender and has another year in this system.  There's some young talent here, its time.   
    • I’m greedy, was hoping we went all out on defense this draft, I think we’ll float in that top 12-15 range defense rank wise 
    • Our biggest addition Jaelen Phillips has a significant injury history to include a ruptured Achilles followed by a torn ACL. We failed to add a much needed starting safety, ilb, and/or nickel in the draft.   Lee Hunter is nice but ends up being a wash considering the loss of A'Shawn Robinson. Injuries could cause problems for a unit lacking depth.  Top ten seems a bit ambitious with a likely upgrade in strength of schedule.
