I don't think that's a bull. The nose isn't squared off enough.

While the snout does look a little long I would still say bull

hi guys im new to the site but ive been sharkin for a while and i have to say that that shark is not a bull or a sandbar....... a bull has a shorter blunter snout and a sanbar would not be in blue water like that...... that is a dusky shark! nice catch!!!!!
