Had a blue shark come up to the boat this weekend and scare off most of the fish. She was really interested in the GoPro and a tuna that was hooked. Got her close and ... Well, I'm the one in the long sleeve blue shirt.

About 4,900 miles west of SD bay then go south a bit until you meter fish.

I'll get the full video this afternoon

Finally got the video. Nothing bad happened. I just got her tail and after this video cuts out I decided not to get a lap picture and just let her go. Too many people on the boat and the sides were too high to transitioned her over it and onto my lap.
