I saw the same thing last year at the south jersey. their response was they wanted something for the table. I said.... must have a pretty small table, and they got pissed go figure. LMAO. the baby mako wasn't even close to a 100lbs. It fit in a dock cart for crying out loud.

This is not the problem with the shark population, because people have always be keeping baby makos recreationally it is the finning mostly and then long lines.
