Does anybody know what kind of shark this is? It showed up in a chum slick set out in 140'.

Porbeagle. Was the water cool?

On second glance it does look like a porbeagle ... The big question would be: whats it doing in warm water? Thats why it didn't enter my train of thought...Carolina in summer that would be as rare as rare can be...

Rounded pec fins give him away.

Is the water on the bottom cool down there now?

Just guessing as to where he is but 140' is near our break. Surface should be in the low 80s and bottom about low 70s or high 60s.
