"This is what happens when momma lets the boys loose in Florida for a few days... Shh don't tell her," Trump Jr. wrote on his Instagram post.

A video was also posted to YouTube capturing the president's son hauling in the shark with an oversized fishing pole on the shoreline.

After a 10-minute workout, Trump Jr. pulls the shark to shore, unhooks it, and takes pictures. He then drags the shark back into the ocean and celebrates his catch with the other fishermen and video crew around him.

Trump Jr. mentioned in his post that he caught half a dozen Blacktip sharks that day, but all of the sharks he caught were catch and release.
