This “unquestionably attracted a lot of attention. On “Fox and Friends” on Wednesday morning, Braun said, “I didn’t really anticipate this to end up on the news, but here we are, getting the chance to talk about sharks.”

It’s a hobby I love, he continued.
Children and others are taught how to fish by Braun.
“Everyone’s clearly thrilled to witness healthy release,” he stated in reference to his release of the sand tiger shark.
He added that fishing has a long history in his family because he still possesses the rod that belonged to his great-grandfather.

When we go fishing, “everyone’s always excited out there to see what we bring in,” he remarked.
And it’s wonderful to involve the children, especially my younger cousins.
“It is the ocean here. Sharks reside in this area.”

He added that it’s been nice to be outside, include people, and instruct them in fishing considering the COVID-19 pandemic during the previous few years, as well as how everyone has recently been “inside.”

It’s been wonderful, and it’s been wonderful for the sport.

Said Braun on Wednesday morning on andquot;Fox and Friends,andquot; andquot;This year we've caught a lot of bigger sharks. We've had a colder water season  That's just my fishing theory.andquot;

When asked if he’d recently seen larger sharks closer to shore, he responded, “It is the water here. Sharks reside in this area.”
Added he, “The game has expanded considerably. This may be the reason why it has recently attracted “greater” attention.”

“We’ve captured a lot of larger sharks this year. Since the season has been cooler, I do believe that some larger sharks are entering the area while some lesser sharks are “staying further out,” “Braun added.

I’m not a scientist, but that’s just my fishing notion, he added.
He added, “It’s the water, it’s where sharks live, it’s their home.”
