We were bill fishing off of Caracas one very hot day. Just before jumping in for what we hoped would be a cooling swim along comes a great white, not supposed to be there but there it was. Swim cancelled.

Swim cancelled.

Aww, you guys should have taken a quick dip, then you would've had some legit bragging rights forever.

“Just before jumping in for what we hoped would be a cooling swim along comes a great white, not supposed to be there but there it was. Swim cancelled.”

I was fishing an outgoing tide in a channel down along Florida GOM, and I noticed some commotion on the beach and I continued to fish, I got done fishing that tidal shift I waded back to shore and that’s when I heard that there was a significant black tip about 10 ft behind me... I could have lost a limb or gotten mangled! Talk about braggin’ rights!

Tourists down there wade out into the Gulf about 5:00 p.m. and I noticed that every night that was a group of locals that would go down to the beach and I asked them what was happening as they set up there evening fishing rigs and they said “you see them tourists out there? They have no idea that sharks feed around this time every day.”
