Giant Sawtooth Shark in Key West

Giant Sawtooth Shark in Key West fishing with Capt. Steve Rodgers and Jeremy Sweet. Testing out the new Shimano Talica 10 and Terez Rods with Power Pro Hollow Ace.

As the angler in the video states, it's actually called a "sawfish." And it's classified as a ray, not a shark. No disrespect intended, just trying to clarify for your viewers. And for people wondering about eating them, or whatever, they are federally protected under the US Endangered Species Act of 1973. Incredibly rare animals, you guys should be pretty happy that you caught all this on video. Glad to see it released too, cool video.

you're making it so much colder here in Canada, nice fish.

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

@TheSeji ?Thanks very much for calling us morons...lol. You may want to watch the end of the video where we release the fish! The Sawtooth was a fluke in an area loaded with Bulls, Black Tips and some Lemons.

[@Rebelz78]

Nice fish, Which Terez model is the rod?

I saw a kid catch a 3 footer off a little pier in Calusatchie, took a pic of it and told him there rare and release it. So it swam off

[@TheOhioSportsman]

Thats awesome!

[@TheCheaterFilms]

I would have just lipped the thing;) Haha no but seriously, how did that not snap the line with its saw?

[@IndigoVibes]

What does it use its saw nose for?

[@hosam613]

[@JPDeRoseOutdoors]

@videographerfromhell : Pretty rare from what I understand so I hope not!

[@videographerfromhell]

Can you eat them?

[@DjBackStop]

[@patrickevans3457]

How are they morons? They didn't seek out the fish and place his mouth around their bait. Then they released.
