Another Great White has been reeled in off the coast of Florida. A group on a fishing trip will never forget this catch. This happened on Volusia County, which is where Daytona Beach is. The shark circled the boast for about 20 minutes before being hooked.

“All of a sudden, he hit one of the lines and I’m not really sure if we caught him or he caught us, but we ended up going for about a two-mile ride chasing him down,” the boat captain said. The shark was released back into the ocean.

This isn't the first Great White to be caught off the coast of Florida this year. In March, one was caught off the coast of Ft. Lauderdale.
