A Utah fisherman who managed to hook a shark while angling in Florida over the weekend watched in horror as a bald eagle swooped down and snatched his catch the moment he pulled it out of the water.
- Chad Rissman, who'd just received his fishing license earlier that day, caught the shark while fishing on a beach off the Dunedin Causeway, according to his wife, Amanda. After a lengthy struggle to reel in the ocean predator, Rissman pulled him into shallow water and was preparing to cut it loose -- when a huge bald eagle came swooping down and grabbed the shark.
- Amanda Rissman says after dropping the toothy fish on the beach, the bald eagle dined on its stolen meal for at least 20 minutes before flying away.
