Concerning great white sharks. . .

Wasnt there a great white shark down at Bass Pro Shops in the early 1990's that was claimed to be the largest shark caught on rod and reel? I have been trying to look for that story again as I only remember pieces of it. I thought the guy was fishing with his buddies near Australia and they seen some mass floating in the water. When they pulled the boats up to it, the mass was a whale that had died and sharks were still in the area. I think the guy used some whale meat and had caught the smaller shark, which happened to be like 1700+ pounds or something like that. It took awhile for them to land it and two boats to bring it in to shore.

Does anyone remember this? I think they mady have also had the shark at the sport show that year as well.
