I've shot a few sharks for the BBQ.
Be careful! know your shark, Meko's have been known to attack spear fisherman after being shot. Other sharks such as soup fins' react very slowly at first then go completely crazy. I've had little five footers pull me under.
It's best to stone them or have very long float line.

Hi,
Seabasses where separated in their own familiy, and they are no longer part of the Serranidae familiy (groupers). They belong to the closely related Monronidae family.
One of my fisheries professors told me once that a white seabream (Diplodus sargus) with 1,5 kg has around 25 years of age.
The biggest one I've caught had 2,2 kg and I've seen fish with almost 3 kg. They get really old!
Biggest bass I know of had almost 14Kg!! Don't know the age of it, but you are right shaneshac they live up around 20 years!
cheers,
Rui
