It;s it great white it weighed right at 3000 the university of wa. came and got it and later it was trailered around with a big sign on the side White Death. It was 1969 I believe and one was caught in the willapa about the same time. I was fishing them commercially and had one take a salmon right at the boat. Then I was in a place up the river we call the sink. You go in there on half tide and can;t get out until the tide comes in and we were trapped in there with 6 of them we had a 27 foot boat and were fishing white sturgeon. They got scared in the shallow water witch was only 8 feet at the deepest and the sink was about 500  yards long and 200 feet wide. They would race back and forth from one end to the other and I was never so glad to see the tide come back in. Usually it is full of seals but they were all up on the back with us. I can show you where it is Tony.

If you Google Washington great whites.. you will find in the past 10 years there have been 3 confirmed reports of great whites in Puget sound and several unconfirmed.....If you go to the tracking site where they tag them and track them...One that was tagged has been up in the straits last November.....following the food source I guess

They have a picture of the one that was caught in Willapa harbor. It's in the Blue herron bar in Bay center.
