DOCS: Landing Sharks
SUBSCRIBE to the Barcroft network:
A CONTROVERSIAL team of fishermen catch enormous sharks while their feet are firmly planted on dry land. The practice, which has been condemned by animal rights groups, will be featured in a brand new Barcroft Original Documentary 'Landing Sharks.' Team True Blue, which features Earnie Polk, 43, his cousins Joey Polk, 29, Kenny Peterson, 21 and friend William Smith, 21, attempt to break their own world records by reeling in the giant sea beasts from the shore. The team often spend up to seven days a week trying to catch gigantic tiger and mako sharks from the shores of Florida, USA and claim that the practice helps with shark conservation. But animal rights activists claim the sport is cruel and leads to suffering and often death for the sharks. Last Summer Barcroft followed the team on an epic two-day excursion to a secret location where they attempted to land, tag and release sharks.
