I'm not jumping in the white shark wagon just yet.
We saw something sunning itself pushing water,Just the dorsal fin I Thought at first, most likely a basker, the second one of the day. But No tail fin above water, just the dorsal and its back, moving pretty quick. Its a Mako! and a big one. A grand easy. Got right up on it with two of us in the tower with a perfect view. It's friggin huge! Thick shoulders, Wayyy to short to be a basker maybe 12' long Giant mako.
As soon as we got on top of it, it bolted. She Wasn't sticking around for what we had in mind.
Called Tom the shark guy. He said it could be a white. NOAA counted 50+ baskers a few days before so maybe my eyes deceive me? But Maybe not.
