Fin placement looks like Blacktip,but the markings are wrong(no black tips on the pecs) Sharpies have three white spots on thier back...again, Its a juvinile,prolly this springs crop,so it's hard to tell. Looks like BAIT to me :D Big sharks LOVE little sharks ;)

Hard to tell what it is, but it's not an Atlantic Sharpnose. Distinguishing feature on the Atlantic Sharpnose: 2nd dorsal and anal fin do not line up.
