I'm sure everyone has seen Chris Fallow's footage of great whites breaching in False Bay, S. Africa.  He also has some pictures of thresher sharks breaching but as far as I know, know one has seen a mako do it.
 
This particular mako was 8 feet long and boat was 25 feet long, that's a large portion of the boat that they could no longer utilize.  Pretty wild stuff!

Good reason to go fishing with firearms!
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

It's classic Hemingway... he used to shoot his machine gun down in Caribbean while on fishing excursions.
