Blue Shark trapped in estuary with rusty hook in its fin

By North Devon Journal | Posted: August 22, 2014

THREE boat hands rescued a blue shark after it became trapped in an estuary with a rusty hook wedged in its fin.

The six-foot blue shark had swum into a creek in Cornwall when it was spotted thrashing about with a hook embedded in its dorsal fin.

The three boat hands from Sailaway St Anthony boat hire in Manaccan, near Helston, decided to paddle out to help it.

They managed to dislodge the hook before guiding the distressed fish back to deeper water where it swam away.
