A Corpus Christi man reeled in the catch of a lifetime.

Albert Zertuche caught a 12 ½ food tiger shark long the beach there near a peer.

He told a television station it took him about two hours to reel it in.

He said he tag the tiger shark and released it back into the water.

It’s believed to be the largest tiger shark captured in that area.

Of course, the big catch was documented by a cell phone camera.
