Billy Skipper and his friend, Cooper Meyers, were out fishing near Amelia Island, Florida, on April 2 when they spotted a great white shark.
“Myself and my friend Cooper Meyers were fishing at the Jetties and decided to go out a bit further and fish the buoys just offshore when we spotted him on the surface,” Skipper told Storyful.
Despite this encounter, OSEARCH’s global shark tracker did not detect any great white sharks in the region, according to local reports
