Probably was a salmon shark, probably was half that size - still way big. Either Bob or AK Kings had a story about salmon sharks in Alaska last year that he related to us. I've seen these puppies myself - twin to a GW, just more brownish tinge to them. They are much more common than GWs, and would be more likely cruising around looking for salmon and nailing a hotspot. <img border="0" alt="[eat]" title="" src="graemlins/eat.gif" />
