A 431-pound great white shark outfitted with a radio tag earlier this year popped up Friday along the Atlantic coast about 100 miles east of Rehoboth Beach, Del.
Brunswick, an adolescent male caught and released Feb. 26 near Hilton Head, S.C., has been heading steadily northward after spending some time in April and May around Myrtle Beach, S.C., and North Carolina's Outer Banks, according to Ocearch's Global Shark Tracker. In the 103 days since he received his battery-operated radio transmitter, which is activated when his dorsal fin is above the surface of the ocean for at least 90 seconds, he has traveled more than 1,300 miles.
He surfaced east of Ocean City, Md., at 4:38 a.m. Friday and headed north to surface again at 4:12 and 6 p.m. Friday east of Rehoboth Beach. This is the season for sharks' annual northern migration, but the first season Brunswick has been tracked.

We had a party & put a 200 lb Mako on a spit that had an automatic turn engine on it.After about 4 hours of cooking and basting,using wood for heat we removed it & cut sections for app 20 people.It was seriously good for something neither of us had done before.
Where did you find a Mako with an automatic turn engine???
He Hungry ! ..Now Wouldn't You Be Too If U Were 431 Lbs !???? Lol
I landed a 239 pound mako with two buddy’s holding me. Took 2 hours and we were tired. After landing it I gave it a kiss and set it free. Thank you.
