A 12-year-old boy from Massachusetts caught a great white shark while on a fishing charter in Florida.
Campbell Keenan spent 45 minutes fighting to reel in the fish before it was close enough for him to see what kind it was.
The fish turned out to be an 11-foot-long shark estimated to be between 400 to 700 pounds, Keenan's mother Colleen Keenan, told ABC News in an interview. Campbell said they did not pull the shark into the boat because there are regulations in the U.S. against taking great whites out of the water, as the captain advised them, but they pulled the shark in close enough for the captain to tag it, before releasing it."I didn't get it closer than four feet to it. But the captain got right up there and tagged them," Campbell Keenan said.
This is the third great white shark Capt. Paul Paolucci has caught since 2003, he told ABC News in an interview.
