Great White Shark Takes the Bait Off Cape May Coast [VIDEO]

Avalon's Steve Clark got some amazing video of a great white shark Saturday afternoon while captaining his boat at 28-Mile Wreck, the site of a World War II shipwreck off of Cape May.

According to NBC 10 Philadelphia, Clark, who works as a shark tagger for National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), as part of a cooperative initiative called the Apex Predator Program, had a close encounter with a 16-foot great white shark who circled for about 20 minutes and helped himself to the boat's chum bag.

Here is the YouTube video taken from the boat, posted on nbcphiladelphia.com
