The BIGGEST SHARK I Have Ever Seen - Great White Circles My Boat 

As a person that spent a lot of time in the ocean growing up surfing on a daily basis, I have to admit that my fear of running into a shark let alone a great white shark was never on my mind but now that I don't surf anymore seeing these great whites nowadays with the technology and drone footage they scare the hell out of me and I was imagining myself being on your boat by myself I would've been scared shitless!

You're going to need a bigger boat.

12:41 for the first GWS sighting! Got my heart racing even from behind the screen! Nice one!

I grew up on the coast of Maine & used to be a commercial fisherman in the Gulf of Maine. It absolutely blows my mind thinking of the amount of times I jumped off a boat miles offshore for a swim, swam off of islands in mid coast Maine, etc. without the thought of anything other than dogfish & basking Sharks. Won't catch me doing it now! Since that fatal shark attack in Harpswell(which is about 15mi south of me) in 2020 & hearing population estimates off new england approaching 900 individuals- I really cannot believe what we used to do!

This is one of those epic episodes where everything gets along smoothly with surprises along the way. We're highly entertained!

I felt like this was a fever dream 😂 from seeing a great white, dolphins, and a jet fly by to getting some great catches.....what a day out on the ocean

I grew up basically "on the water"...living in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island. I started sailing at age 6, worked with a friend on his 38' troller, sailed small boats competitively, etc, etc...now am a retired physician, still living with a great ocean view and very close to the water - and still, with my love (retired Olympic athlete) with an expansive view of the ocean. Can sail, any time I want, or ride an inner tube down a wonderful boisterous river (the 😊 Puntledge), etc...And this was a delightful video, educational, etc. - but, primarily, and obviously, you are clearly in love with the ocean and its many delights. Great post. Thank you.

The thing that amazes me the most is how social creatures they are. I mean that shark is directly interacting with that guy.

That's one of those magic days you'll never forget. The coolest thing for me was you understanding what the fish wanted and changed your tactics to get the wahoo. True signs of a great fisherman.

Makes you feel small when you bump into a big one Its amazing how chill they can be, can't believe he didn't come back when you hooked up

This is what i love about Rod. Has an epic encounter with what was a full size great white and handles it like he's been there before. No over sensationalism, no running around like an idiot, and nothing but respect. Here in the Florida keys I have seen some big tiger sharks but that great white would be an amazing moment. Great catches and amazing job with the cameras/drone. Cheers man. Try not to let the cobwebs accumulate on your wonderful boat Rod.

Need a Cuppa tea and a lie down after watching that ?! Insane day . And all off Tallebudgera?! Amazing footage of the White ! And follow feature on drone . Bloody awesome Rod !!! 🙏☝️😀🇦🇺🍺

Been watching for quite a long time and I have to say that this episode had it all. So very happy for you. You deserved every bit of it whether it was the great fish caught, the dolphins and shark, or the fighter jet flybys.

"We're going to need a bigger boat".... Shark - "Hmmm, I wonder if I can tip that boat over and eat that nice squishy thing on top of it?"

Such a pure film that I could smell the ocean..and I'm in the middle of the USA. The sounds of the water slapping the boat and your very real video..awesome..thanks for sharing.

Dude, I was thinking the other day “it’s weird we never see any sharks on this channel”.. Nature is amazing.

Thanks for bringing us along for this wicked trip!

Just happened upon your channel for first time. What a day….amazingly beautiful!! Love the overhead and underwater shots- those are the best!!!

Huge White Shark, Dolphins, Jet Fighters, giant Wahoo calmly swimming near the boat... What a day! Great video bro!

What an insane day! And that shark was a beauty. Thanks for sharing this amazing experience!

That feeling when you cast off in the morning hoping you'll have a day like this is one of my favorite things about fishing. Fantastic vid (loved the editing), keep up the good work hombre.

Absolutely fantastic day for you, Rod. Thanks for letting us enjoy it with you from afar.

"Thats a twenty footer!" "Twenty five, 3 tons of him."

I didn’t realize that I was holding my breath and on the edge of my seat until you brought that big fish in. Once it hit the bottom of your boat I finally breathed. I’m not a fisher person and was not aware of how hard you have to work to bring in a fish! Super fun to watch, thank you for sharing your day with us.

Wow Rod most epic video of the year no doubt. Lots of action and two great species of fish to eat and take home to the family. Awesome video Rod stay safe out there and have a blessed day. Aloha from Kansas

What a nice boat. I’ve got a 1987 deep v aluminum 18’ , that was setup as a fish and ski with the wheel and seats. Fished for years, and now have this hull that is stripped down to bare. I’d considered different ways to repower and configure it, and the configuration you have is along the lines of what I was picturing. With availability of good tiller control larger outboards , which provide much more usual space. I like the idea of having a floor with cleats so can add seats as needed , and have a Ton of cargo area. I like your boat !

That was the BEST. I grew up on the Goldy and now I live in LA and boy does this video make me homesick.

This is SO COOL! He just wantedsomebody to chill out and hang with, and you showed up! Great video!

Everytime I've watched your channel the great white has always been in the back of my mind. You're a brave soul my friend, great vid 😎🤙🏻

What a catch, new day new adventure !! Keep doing what you doing cheers 👌

Jesus lve never seen anyone fish like that it was like listening to another language but exciting to watch ! What a beautiful place you live & your Channel is beautiful too🎣🐠

I'm just glad you weren't in the kayak when the white shark showed up! He seemed a little too curious and hung around for a while!!! Epic video Rod! Thanks for sharing

Great video. I meant to congratulate you on 10 years of doing these fantastic videos since March 2013. I’ve been watching just about as long.

Wow amazing, so lucky to see it and not be in the kayak.

I really like this workout, particularly the video. The presentation is what I’m looking for, it’s simple, it has a timer, and someone to walk you through it in a simplified manner that anyone can understand. Thank you

Stoked the news picked this up, so Good for the channel, much deserved bro. This whole day couldn't have happened to anyone else. Happy for you rod.

That was so dope what a great day on the water! That shark was incredible- keep up the great content

Maybe a couple of cameras mounted on the bottom of the boat would make for some great content?

that bridge had me ducking from the drone footage..🤣🤣

Insane! What an incredible experience

Wow! Congrats Rod! What a battle. Each time the reel was screaming it had me worried, even though I remembered you already landed it in your Instagram pic. Wow, what a day.

Shark | Battle-Scarred Amazing episode!

Amazing free food from the sea “less gas & permits” and a feed you pay over $100+ for in a seafood restaurant well done mate I envy you 👍

Deserved for the blessing of your great catches and encounters! Congrats 🐟👍

Incredible session Rod! Thanks heaps for sharing the adventure mate 👍

2 Mahi and a Wahoo along with a visit from a White pointer couldn’t get much better. All within sight on land.That is what dreams are made of.

Wow that was a big boy.He had his fork and knife out, just waiting for a few free meals. i have to say he was very gentle, not in rage mode. It amazes me how beautiful they really are. In the USA they're protected, along with many of our Dolphins, Killer Whales, and most if not all of our sports fish. I'm a kayak angler, and fish 3 day's a week. I love it, fun fishing, camp and fish trips with my buddies and we meet, launch and go by our kayaks. We're all motorized, electronics, and every other toy they make. Awesome fish caught. But the shark was the you-tube star. 🐩🎣

What a BEAUTIFUL animal! And SHE (no claspers) was kind enough to let you keep the fish!

WOW Rod what an amazing trip! The fishing alone or the wildlife alone would’ve been amazing but together?! AWESOME STUFF

This video was beyond any other video I've ever seen on the channel! Miraculous, phenomenal, breathtaking, magical. What a wonderful day so thankful to be brought along. Wish we could've seen the fish cook

Hey, mate. Wherever you go, there you are. No surprise the Great White showed up, you're in a high density Great White part of the world. Wherever you go...

Great vid Rod. Awesome to have one of those special days every once in a while. Would love to see a follow up vid of the creative cooking that’s gonna take place. Congrats from Oklahoma.

Always so excited to see Rod has released a new video!! Keep them coming mate!! I just also want to say I love your boat!! I want a stabicraft boat so bad, hopefully one day in the near future I can get one!! That shark was massive 😳

Best narration of any fishing channel. Fantastic day. I really should try this one day.

Broody, we're heading in chief

Im new to the channel. You had an epic day!🎉 this made me super pumped to get out there!!!

Incredible Rod!!! I’ve been watching this channel for a long time now, and if anyone deserved such an awesome experience (that will no doubt draw in more viewers), it is you good sir! Congrats mate 🤟💪🤩

What a day, and epic day fishing - love seeing all the new spots you've been able to get with the new boat. Keep it up!

That was brilliant, 360. Footage, GoPro under water footage! Made me feel like a kid again, full of adventure this video!

this is one of your best vids ever! You got tons of fish and you even got a double super hornet flyover. This was so epic! Thanks for making this for us Rod!

Incredible fishing. Great work getting the fish to eat when they were being stubborn. I bet you are loving the new boat, imagine if that shark had shown up when you were in the inflatable?

White shark, dolphins, fighter planes, mahi mahi and wahoo how awesome was that day. 👍

Oh, and I loved the underwater shots!

Wow awesome day for you Rod! Great video as usual!

Let this be a lesson folks Beautiful water Suns shining Perfect Then Bruce shows up 😂

Loved watching this guy wash his hands in the water over the side...watched a guy get snatched out of his boat by a gator doing the exact same thing! Great White, a tad bit faster than a gator. LOL

You made the news Rod channel 9 mate......you're moving up in the world lol this I'll be one to tell about to the grand kids one day mate 😊

Wow, what a day you had, Rod! Shark, Dolphins, and Jets. If that wasn't enough, you pulled three bigs. One of them being a Wahoo. I tip my hat to you sir.

the fact that you fish from a kayak all that time with fish like that in the water is MIND BLOWING. I would sell my kayak and buy a bigger boat...

When people don't believe your fish story from this day, you have this video.

What a great catch!!! That shark was beautiful thank you for sharing your adventures, enjoyed every second of it.

Love the homage comment to JAWS.You come across like a really nice guy…..All the Best SIR….Keen rock fish o,can’t afford a lovely boat like yours,Sure you deserve the best!!!😊😊😊😊😊❤❤

You forgot the Dolphins Rod, fighter jets, a great white and the Dolphins. Amazing. Thank you so much for another great video. Much love to you and your family from us in the UK.

I love how you talk to the slimy's like little soldiers. " Get out there and take one for the team"

You should try to get those two bait fish by his tummy.😂😂😂

Yep.. as the saying goes.. definitely a bigger boat.. Nice video

You got balls bro. I would have called it a day when the great white circled my small boat.

Thats so amazing, that remided me of an encounter i had in croatia, when i was young me and my brother always fished during vacations in croatia, one morning we trolled some tiny lures for horse makerel and saddled bream, we saw a very big seal floating on the surface belly up, we only had a 3.5hp mercury which is very quiet in idle, we went close to it and i thought it was dead, so i gave it a little poke with my rod tip. What followed was one of the biggest jumpscares i ever got, as soon as i poked it with my rod it let out the most powerful exhale i ever heard from an animal, at the same time it fliped over and was just looking at us for a few seconds before diving a good distance away from us, i used a 1.8m rod for trolling back then so you know we where very close to that huge Mediterranean monk seal. Poor fella just had a nap in the morning sun with his belly up and got poked by some kid with his rod xD

Thanks for bringing us along on your awesome day fishing. Loved watching your video.

Thanks for sharing mate! Wonderful pictures! ❤

Shark. You or the fish something going give😂

HOOPER: "That's a twenty footer"; QUINT: "Twenty five. Three ton of him": BRODY: "Ya gonna need a bigger boat!"

Thank GOD, i live in the middle of the USA and never have to even worry about things that live in the water! I watched maybe five seconds of this vid and knew immediately how I felt. I can't even imagine how people who love "the Water" feel! I would rather die of thirst than stick my toe in the ocean! Those of you who might complain about too many people at the beach, don't blame me coz I'm not THERE!

Shark was totally chilling with you. Thanks for taking me along with you.

And this is why we call this place God's country 10/10 brother what a sheshon in the tinny congrats to you bro rember to KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE ...👍

This points out the scary fact, that you can pretty much jump in the water anywhere, and be on a shark's radar in no time. Many sharks know the sound of a boat engine, and know there is going to be a hooked fish, for an easy kill, so they follow that outboard sound for miles.

Nice boat, nice shark, nice catch, nice dolphins, nice wahoo! To sum it up - NICE! :-)

Wow, what a day! Amazing fishing episode, great dinner for the family. 😊😎

Magnificent, beautiful shark, love this video!!! 😍😍❤❤

Yes. Sharks are safe. Until they decide to make your legs the fries in their happy meal. Awesome day of fishing and seeing big shark. Good for you. Nothing beats the open water. Thx for footage. Going to need a bigger boat. Ha.

If that had been me there would have been a lot of ‘brown bait’ in the boat 😂😂

Wow! Great day Rod!!! Enjoyed hearing the genuine shock in your voice on that white. Congrats on sorting out that hoo bite. Was a nice fish for sure!!!

He's checking you out to decide whether or not he wants an appetizer before his meal.

This is the first time I've watched your RU-vid. The Best I've seen.I'll have to watch more of these.

You made national news headlines here! That was a monster shark!

Most RU-vidrs would have gone with the title: “Unbelievable Encounter: Great White Shark vs. Fighter Jet Planes! Dolphins and an Epic Fishing Day Caught on Camera!" Rod keeling it real 👌🏼

You said it, Great White shark, jet planes and fishing. All that was missing was a V-8 and a couple of beers and pretty much every bloke and some women would consider it the perfect day. Loverly....

Next episode: Block Party Fish Fry. Great vid Rod! Cheers! 🇨🇦

Stoked for you Rod. What an epic day out. 👌👌👌

What an action packed day! Absolutely joyfull !
