For those of you that got confused like I did, the bar that pops up is not the sharks life bar. Your characters life bar turns in to the sharks. The bar that pops up tells you if the shark is about to throw you off.

When you damage the shark, the bar goes down. This is when you hit the Hold On button. This will fill the bar a bit and allow you to hit the shark again.

When the shark dies, you hop off and are given credit.
