A Melbourne fisherman has caught a 2.4m bronze whaler shark after an epic three hour battle in Port Phillip Bay.
Nick Stambanis was fishing from his rubber dinghy
near Rye at about midday when he hooked the 120kg monster.
He spent the next three hours fighting to keep hold of the shark as it dragged him 10 kilometres out to the shipping channel.
After abandoning the dinghy for a larger boat Mr Stambanis was eventually able to beach the shark on the Rosebud foreshore.
He said he would turn the big fish into many big meals.
"[I'll] eat it for about six months," Mr Stambanis told National Nine News.
A spokeswoman from the Department of Fisheries said there are no restrictions on the catch and the man could do what he liked with the shark.
Bronze whaler sharks, which can grow up to 3.5m, are common along the eastern coast of Australia and are known for their aggressive behaviour.
Although they have attacked people, there are no recorded fatalities involving the shark.
