A Great White Shark Caught Off The Coast Of Florida
A Great White shark has been caught off the coast of Florida. A family was on vacation when they reeled in the surprising catch. This happened off the coast of Ft. Lauderdale and it took about 40 minutes and three men to reel in the shark.
The family was visiting from North Dakota and came to Florida primarily for the fishing trip. Catching a great white is rare as the captain of the boat they were on told them. “I’ve been doing this for 20 years full-time as a captain,” said Capt. Adam Reckert, “and that’s the second one that I’ve landed. The last one was about 15 years ago.”
The group tagged the great white shark and set it free off the coast of Florida.
Check out video of the catch below.
