Video: Large bull shark caught in 'fresh water'

The Today Show reported on the noteworthy catch in Georgia

Granted, with the headline “Boy Catches Shark in Fresh Water” I envisioned a 10-year-old with a Snoopy pole hundreds of miles inland – not a 16-year-old commercial fisherman in coastal Georgia. It's also well established that bull sharks are no strangers to fresh water. But it’s a noteworthy catch nonetheless...

The video below is a bit sensational (Jaws clips and all) but we thought you’d find it interesting. Enjoy!

This is a brackish tidal marsh, not fresh water

This is not fresh water. It is a saltwater tidal creek.
