Fisherman catches small shark in Ocean City

OCEAN CITY, N.J. (WPVI) -- It was quite a commotion on an Ocean City beach on Friday after a fisherman caught a small shark.

The shark took the bait just off the coast.

Fisherman Paul Trunzo was the one who reeled the little guy in and showed it off to the excited crowd.

Trunzo says he's been fishing for sharks all week and he got lucky.

"The line just stopped and it took off on the drag. I figured I had something big...the shark came in and everybody got excited," he said.

After all the excitement, Trunzo released the shark back in to the water and went back to fishing.
