Shark Id?

Not very good at Id'ing sharks, but caught this bad boy last Thurs. I'm thinking bull. I may be wrong. Let me know.

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

So what do you think?

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

Sandbar or Bull shark. Hard to tell apart.

Sandbar Shark

We caught a few last year around the same size, nice fighting shark with some good runs

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!!!!!

Dusky probably.....maybe a silky.
