Hammerhead shark at The Block

Hammerhead Shark at The Block

Enjoy the video…Pooven Naicker wowed the crowds with this punchy hammerhead shark at The Block, this morning…

The fish was taken on a live mullet and screamed off on it’s first run, steam train style. The outsized wintery waves proved to be a true challenge as some were breaking right over Pooven – as he had to stand and just take it on the head, whilst he negotiated a truce with the grumpy shark. A crowd had gathered by now and support was being shouted in from all sides – world cup fever spilling over…

When Pooven put the fish on the rocks, the crowd errupted with applause and Pooven’s smile got even bigger.

Pooven was not targeting sharks, no, rather he was after the Garrick which are running nicely. This time of the year is when the garrick go absolutely wild for a few days, having spent their energies on spawning – they need to replenish for their long swim back to The Cape.

The place where it all happens. The Block in Port Shepstone
After some dodgy rock clambering the shark was eventually subdued.
