Angler Mark Heffernan, Chairman of Dundalk "SAC" had a day to remember. Mark was fishing on Carlingford Lough on board the "Tope Legend", a boat owned by Brian Gallagher when he hooked and landed a monster tope shark for Irish waters. The big shark was 67.50 pound with a fork length of 60 inches and a girth of 30 inches which would put it above the current Irish record of 66lb 8oz.
