only one thing needed, A faster boat and a neighbor you don't like
From what I've read, heavyweight fishing tackle does just fine. By the time the shark has been brought to the boat, he's too tired to be a threat except to the careless. Folks have been catching them that way for a long time--going back to Zane Grey's well-publicized exploits in the late 1920s.
Odds are, since the shark's in the water and a shark-hunter is in a reasonably-sized boat, a rifle of the AR-10 sort would suffice. Reasonable power, multiple hits.
If you were to go out hunting a large shark like in Jaws would you take a firearm?
