And video of a blue fish fight and a striper fight we caught on camera too. That you get a clear shot of the dorsal about half way out of the water, and the dark swirl 10 feet behind it is the tail fin!

Could also have been a porbeagle shark very common this time of year but rare to see in the area looking for foods. it seems a little docile for a great white they usually don’t stick around the top they usually lurk at the bottom and lunge to the top. next time bring failvis or murdogg and throw a bitch over. then we would know what it was for reals.
