Nova Scotia angler hooks juvenile great white shark and story of a lifetime
Rick Austin knew he had hooked a big one as his fishing rod bent and he reeled furiously from his kayak off the Nova Scotia coast, but he never dreamt there would be a great white shark on the end of the line.
But after three hours without a single bite, he decided to switch up his bait, putting a live mackerel on a stainless steel hook. “It wasn’t very long, just minutes and my reel starts to click,” he recalled. Then he saw the large, grey fish he had hooked swim near the surface, mere feet from the bow of his kayak. On the video he filmed, he can be heard exclaiming “Holy lifting!” and a few other choice words, before he decided he would need to cut the line.
The shark was a juvenile, between 1.5 and two metres in length, and probably weighed between 45 and 70 kilograms, he said.
