On Tuesday, he caught a lemon shark, and the attention of some beachgoers, on Tybee Island near the pier.

When Brigman hooked the shark, it darted off and became entangled in the lines of other anglers on the pier. He and his fishing companion, Colt Williams, ultimately had to cut all of the lines to safely release the shark back into the water.

Later that evening, the duo captured another shark, this time a 13-foot tiger shark. They struggled for an hour to reel the shark in before letting it go back into the water.

Sharks tend to be most active at dusk and dawn. Various types of sharks, including spinner and blacktip sharks, can be found along Georgia’s coast.
