Great White Leaps From Water To Snare Family’s Dinner
Read Time:39 Second
Great White Sharks are magnificent creatures and a family fishing in Cape Cod Bay had an up-close and personal encounter with one. The huge creature leaped out of the water to snatch a fish they had caught right off the line.
Doug Nelson, of Franklin, who caught the leaping shark on video on Saturday, told New England Cable News it “gave us a pretty good scare.” His son Jack can be seen on the video jumping back as the shark breaches the water’s surface.
The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy confirmed it was a great white, as did Marc Costa, captain of the Orleans-based Columbia Sportfishing vessel. Costa said the boat was about three miles west of Great Island in Wellfleet when the shark made its leap.

The mark of a good writer is that he can say “up close” without adding “and personal” Avoid cliché like the plague. I always say.
