When Adlee Bruner and his five friends headed out Saturday morning on a charter boat 'Twilight' , they just hoped to catch some grouper to enter in the annual Destin Fishing Rodeo, but the trip ended with a huge surprise. Adlee Bruner landed a gargantuan 844.4-pound mako shark, setting a new record for the decades-old tournament.
The mako mark hauled by Adless Bruner is the heaviest fish at the Destin Fishing Rodeo in the past 10 years. The 11-foot mako shark first weighed in at 844.4 pounds. After being gutted, the fish tipped the scales at 638 pounds, shattering an earlier shark division record of 338 pounds.
