During our last several tuna trips we have been seeing and catching mako sharks, blue sharks and a crazy amount of thresher sharks. My father actually had a thresher shark jump into his boat!
Thank God my Dad didn't get hurt, because that thresher was close to 400 pounds. Fortunately the thresher stunned himself immediately upon hitting the deck of his boat.
During one of my last trips I watched what I believe to be a big mako chasing a small tuna on the surface. I have also heard of several great white sharks being spotted in the area.

There's a lot of life out there right now to say the least. MFCC members can click download below to listen to my full report.​
Pictured above is one of the thresher sharks taken during one of Cullen's recent charters. The shark was caught using a live mackerel.
Thresher and mako sharks have been "by catch" while fishing for tuna. However the sharks put up an amazing fight and are good eating.
