Since the guilty portion of your client (mouth) has left the jurisdiction of the Oceanic Civil Code (the ocean) there is plainly no case to answer here.
These guys aren’t “shark fishing”. They’re probably going after red drum or striped bass, but once a hook is in the water - anything can bite it. So, to be an ethical fisherman, they come prepared for sharks to release them as quickly as possible.
Maybe. But there are a ton of shark fishers here in Florida, including a few charters in Panama where this says it's at. Hammerhead fishing in Florida specifically is legal.
No, they did not. The likelyhood that it will die, due to stress from the catch is rather high. Great Hammerheads do not do well, even after release. 50% to 90% die from metabolic acidosis and organ failure even after being released. So, they just killed him a little slower.
Saved? Would not have been needed except the shark was just caught by them. Credit for having the correct tools on hand with some risk from the dehooker. Big sombitch. I used to love sportfishing, not at all now.
He’s kind of hanging on to its tail at the end there, probably so he can swish him back and forth if the shark has any trouble getting going. Gotta get some water moving over the gills. Good job fellas!

When you have a hook in your mouth, yeah!

Glad they acted quickly; but it seems whomever's line that is is also responsible?

The face down in the sand after the hook was pulled. God I felt that.

It was written in English and not in Shark, whereas the Oceanic Civil Code clearly states it needs to be written in the native languages.
My client Sharkdoo the 3rd will see you in court, Mr Jeltz.

Probably in a truck parked right alongside the shore. Either that or a hardware store right across the street lent them.

People who go shark fishing. To release the shark after they reel it in.

This is good but I worry for the sharks breathing.

TurnsOut42WasASlightMiscalculation
Pretty sure that in the surf there's no problem with getting water moving across the gills
boxbackknitties
You’d think, but I’ve definitely seen fish “drown” in a scenario like this. Best to be ready.

And keep it from swinging around on him I might add.

Why I don't like sportfishing anymore. Some are maimed for life, some don't survive.

Sharks are very curious and affectionate, but the problem is that their only method of interacting with anything is their bear trap of a mouth.
MakeItBackAlright
Anyone who owns a goldfish knows that fish instinct is to curious chomp anything that brushes its nose

that explains why emma got four hooks in her mouth...
