Video: Mass. family reels in great white shark off Florida coast
"In Fort Lauderdale, catching one is like getting a Super Bowl ring. They're really rare, because the waters are very warm."
"The trip started with the group catching medium-sized fish. In the final hour, he switched to heavier rods and larger bait - which soon paid off."
"Together, they fought the fish for about 45 minutes before bringing it alongside the boat. Afterward, the crew measured the shark, took pictures, and released it back into the water."
"Paolucci described the moment the massive shark surfaced as 'extreme excitement.' He noted his mate on the boat caught his first-ever shark that day and was elated."
A family from Massachusetts caught a 10-foot great white shark while fishing in Fort Lauderdale. Captain Paul Paolucci noted that encountering such sharks is extremely rare due to warm waters. The fishing trip began with smaller fish, but after switching to heavier rods, they successfully hooked the shark. Donovan Smith fought the shark for about 45 minutes before it was brought alongside the boat, measured, photographed, and released with a tracking tag for research purposes. The crew experienced extreme excitement during the catch.
