In addition to working out and staying in shape for the upcoming season, Green Bay Packers linebacker Sam Barrington has tangled with some of the biggest, most dangerous fish in the sea.

He shared a photo of the 400-pound bull shark he caught recently, which apparently took 45 minutes to reel in.

This is no ordinary shark, either. Bull sharks are widely considered to be some of the most ferocious and dangerous sharks in the world, which explains why it took nearly an hour to win this battle.
