Jeff Crilly was at the helm of his 31-foot fishing boat approximately 30 miles east of Manasquan when a great white shark appeared alongside the vessel.
“That was the coolest…thing I’ve ever seen,” one crewmember yelled moments after the shark breached from the water to bite at a bag filled with bait.
In recent years, the tracking of a great white shark dazzled social media denizens as it cruised near the New Jersey coastline on numerous occasions. The 16-foot, 3,456-pound “Mary Lee” was tracked via GPS online by OCEARCH, a marine research organization, for years until the device stopped pinging in 2017.
