Shark on the Potomac?!

Not trying to jump on a bandwagon here, but while on the Potomac last weekend near Fairview Beach, I did see something 'large' surface with what could have been a dorsal fin. I dismissed it quickly figuring I just saw a big Catfish or something.
However, I now I am curious if what I saw and this Shark coincide.

That shark was caught a long way from Fairview on the south end of the Potomac near Point Lookout.
What you saw at Fairview Beach was probably Seltzer swimming on his back
How else could he get a woman that looks as good as Susan?

I would think the lack of salt would keep those creatures away from Fairview and other hot spots on the northern Potomac.
No jelly fish, no sharks, am I right on this or just giving myself a false sense of security?

Most of the time the water at Fairview is brackish. If we get alot of rain it tends to get less salty. But I have noticed that the crab pots are being placed as far north in the river as I have ever seen them. The island in front of Tyme N Tyde marina.
