All members of the shark family are identifiable by most anglers pretty easily, as they for the most part have similarly shaped and colored bodies (anywhere from a light brown, tan or grey if not darker upper halfs and a lighter underside), what sets the white Shark apart is its blunt head, large tail, huge teeth and powerful build.
These fish are found in the extreme deep and open waters.
Large live or dead baitfish make for the best natural bait, while artificials are not commonly used when targeting this fish.
