While walking on North Topsail beach with my children, We came along two fishermen who caught a shark while fishing off the beach. It was pretty scary and exciting considering we had just been swimming at the beach earlier. The fishermen handled the shark with respect and released it back into the ocean.
Props for putting the shark back and not hurting him. We surf and see sharks all the time. They deserve respect too. Thanks!

Sharks like this are very common at Topsail. I'll often catch at least 1-3 of them during our annual trip during the summer. About 3 years ago I caught 3 in one DAY. They really won't do much harm to you, unless you're bleeding or step right on it.
