Got-No-Game Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Freshwater Sharks It's on the internet so it must be true!!:eek::eek: The longest freshwater shark on record was found in Deep Creek Lake in the western panhandle of Maryland in 1983. It measured 9 feet 4 inches in length and weighed 512 pounds. The only other freshwater shark over 8 feet in length was found in Lake Cumberland, Kentucky in 2001. It was 8 feet 7 inches long and weighed 428 pounds and was thought to be responsible for all 3 shark attacks in that lake that summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePride92 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Wow. Guess I'll stay in Green River Lake and Herrington Lake though I'm surprised Herrington hasn't had a shark attack or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I just did a quick search of the KDFWR's website. Didn't find anything mentioned about freshwater sharks at all. The only mention I saw was when they said freshwater sturgeons have a "shark-like" body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldtimebaseball84 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Sometimes a land shark gets hot and takes to the lake to cool off. This is probably the confusion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
