Guy down at the station just showed me an article on FB where a bull shark (I think) was captured by DOC at Wappapello recently. Is this for real? How it would have traversed from the Mississippi R to Wapp IDK. The article said they suspect from all the flooding and overflows. Guess it was around the 4th. Perhaps it has already been reported and I missed it.
same story was floating around Kentucky lake. not true. "that's fake news" -in my best Donald trump voice
Sounds fishy to me
Don't know about the shark, but I know there is a lot of bull on FB.
hi fellas im from ms and saw the same story on fb yesterday. i always been fascinated by sharks and i remember reading in national geographic where there was documetation of a bull shark found in the ms at st. louis. at the time that was the farthest inland a shark had ever OFFICIALLY known to have traveled and he was found dead tangled in a trot line.
That is true. They found a dead 6 foot bull shark in the water intake in Alton Illinois. It more than likely swam up the Mississippi River from the gulf. There is no way a shark could make it into Wappapello from the ocean. There is no direct link.Quote:

Nope I saw it last weekend. That's what took out our prop.:Doh: LOL
Saw on fb yesterday about bull shark in the Trinity River in Tx
saw the same article about shark at the wap. total bs story. if you actually read the article they had it all laid out like well maybe this could very rarely be true, and some ppl might believe it. if you kept reading to the complete end of the page it said you've been tricked or something like that. ppl just read the headlines then call their aunt peggy saying there's a shark in wap and she tells her friends at bingo and that's how rumors get started.
It's on the internet so it must be true ;). And the one about your local lake being drawn down to --- (insert your number here) ft. below normal pool to work on the dam. And the crappie didn't spawn this spring because they still have eggs in them. Etc, etc. :)
My all time favorite, about any lake I've ever visited, a local will tell the story about divers working on the dam got so scared of the giant catfish, they wouldn't go back. I ask why none of these giant catfish ever float up dead? LMAO.

Facebook is just another type of fishing. Bait is cheap and the catch rate is high. There are a lot of fish out there.
