Nice fishes there

iam fond of fishing my self but here in sweden we dont have so big fishes.

Its mostley Salomon, trout, herring and cod. But the ´cod`s can be quite large

But we also have a very larger shark. In swedish its called Brugd. But it can only be found on the swedish west coast.

I saw on in RL once when i was scuba diving. He came right above me and my diving partner when we was close to bottom at about 30 meters depth.

It was an impressive sight and he scared the hell out of me so we had to surface and abandon that dive. Even if they are harmless its quite shocking to have such a big fish over my head

Here is some pictures of the shark so you can se the size of him

Yeah he come crusing just above us. We first saw a shadow and then we looked up and then he was there on about 10 meters depth above us.
And yes, i got scared as hell and my heart pumped

But it was an diving experiens i never forget. Other divers had reported that they had seen the shark in the water before us.

Its very rare to se this shark in the water where i was but they come into shore about once in a year at that place.

We get them around the UK coastline...don't quote me but I believe there the largest shark in the world-yet quite harmless to man cos they are 'sifters' they feed on plankton floating about in the water
I should imagine there also one of the best laxatives to anyone who happens to come across them whilst swimming
