Two Great White Sharks Hooked from Manhattan Beach Pier

One fisherman hooked two great white sharks while on the MB Pier Tuesday. An avid ocean lover cut them loose.

Two more great white sharks were hooked and released from the Manhattan Beach Pier Tuesday by one fisherman.

Eric Martin, director of The Roundhouse Marine Studies Lab and Aquarium at the end of the pier, told Patch the sharks were an estimated 5 to 6 feet and 7 feet. He took photos after cutting the lines to release the sharks. The great white is a protected species.

For more details and photos of the sharks, read .

Freedom is based on a sure identity, that I know who I am, but more importantly WHOSE I am. WhenRead More the LORD sent Moses to deliver His people, that was the beginning of their liberty. They were a particular people to the LORD, whose name is better understand as "He who was, is, and always will be." Not a god made of stone or wood, but the One who made, makes, and evermore makes and gives to us: the LORD took Israel by the hand and led them from bondage to slavery. Not who you are, but whose you are, makes all the difference between bondage and liberty: "For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father." (Romans 8: 15) Have you been adopted yet? "
