Boat Chased by Shark 18 Miles Offshore

Occurred on May 18, 2019 / Geographe Bay, Western Australia, Australia

Info from Licensor: “We were out fishing 30 km’s from shore in a 5.8 meter tinny. An estimated six-meter long shark approached as I cast a fishing rod from the rear of the boat. Fearing the huge shark, we pulled up our line, pulling a jewfish into the boat that had quickly attacked the jig. The shark followed the boat as we moved away until we threw the undersized fish back into the water, catching its attention momentarily. The shark investigated the undersized fish, before returning to the back of our boat. At that point, we decided to cut our fishing trip short and headed back to shore.”
