Video: Great White Shark Bites Fish Being Reeled In Off Cape Cod

FRANKLIN (CBS) - A father-son fishing trip on Cape Cod turned into a once in a lifetime experience. The group captured video of a great white shark as it jumped out of the water.

The Franklin man shooting the video was recording because the boys were competing to see who could catch the biggest fish. He had a feeling the one being reeled in was a huge one, but he wasn't expecting the shark to pop up.

"It was going to be a normal trip and then someone was reeling their fish in then all of a sudden the shark jumped out," said Kevin Daly.

The unexpected visitor popped up Saturday afternoon off the coast of Orleans.

Kevin Daly was one of the young boys on-board.

The great white left them all a little shaken up, but with a great story they'll be telling for years.
