This is the impressive moment a fisherwoman hauled in a 15ft shark weighing 1,200lb - on a lightweight rod and line.

Charlene Dillon, 30, reeled in the bluntnose sixgill shark following a 90-minute struggle and had to be strapped into a harness to stop her being pulled overboard. The huge 85 stone fish - as heavy as a grand piano - was caught at a depth of 200ft off Carrigaholt, County Clare.
