Guy Who Catches A Huge Fish Soon Has To Fight For His Life
In 2019, a peaceful fishing outing quickly turned sour for California man James White. Things seemed normal until suddenly he came face to face with an animal we wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole. With his life on the line, he battled back the creature, unaware that an unlikely ally was watching the scrap unfold.
Fishing pro
Rohnert Park, California, resident James White has a knack for fishing. At least he thought he did. But that all changed when what was supposed to be an easy day of casting off in the Pacific proved to be much more hair-raising.
Bodega Bay
James settled into a spot by the shore at Bodega Bay, an area not far from San Francisco that appeared to be tame and quiet. As he expected, the morning started out slow — but then he felt a tug on his line.
A big pull
Grasping his fishing rod firmly in his hand, James felt that long-awaited pull, but strangely, it was more aggressive than usual. It was so vigorous, in fact, that the burly fisherman struggled to reel in the catch.
Something down there
White told NBC Bay Area that this went on for a staggering 10 minutes. “The only way I think I was able to get the line back is because it was swimming towards me," James said of the encounter.
