"extremely safe for swimming"? for sharks, yes

Thank you for filming this :)

This happens every fall, you have to be at the right place at the right time. Finger mullets are making the run out the inlet, the drum are waiting for them and the sharks are waiting for the drum. I have seen this 10-=15 times in my 25 years on the NC coast fishing. I have had to jump as the sharks go between my legs while casting to the drum. Its a special thing to witness, I do charter and for more info and if you want to see this and catch one fish after the other let me know.

This looks like an ideal place for me to work on my shark-wrangling skills.

WOW thank you for catching that and sharing it with us all! What a sight to behold in the wild! I would have never seen it otherwise!

I've seen Blues push the mullet up on the shoreline twice in my lifetime and it is rare, but never the sharks, what a rush! We raced to tie on silver spoons to pull in Bluefish at Harkers in 1993. Okracoke was where the second encounter.. it was so amazing. I say ban the commercials , pay the locals to oversee, manage, be the caretakers of the greatest gem North Carolina holds (to me), The Outer Banks, there' no place on earth like it.

First ever viral video that was actually shot horizontally.

I like that this is a viral video that was shot properly in landscape and not portrait. Good job!
-
Finally they are back! We needed the sharks back since the sting rays have been consuming all the scallops and other species. Thankfully they are back!
-
Awesome video! I love it when they feed like that!
-
Thank You for sharing this video Mr. Recker.

-
Awesome footage! Bait must have been stacked!

I saw the same kind of sharks feeding on some type of bait fish at Edisto Beach State this past weekend. There were 100s of sharks, maybe 1000. It was spread over about 1/4 mile square, starting just beyond the breakers. Lasted about 20 minutes with surface strikes, some of them jumping strikes, about every 5 seconds. Lots of pelicans joining in on the spectacle. Amazing to see. I go to various beaches in the area about once a week from 1st of May to the end of October and have never seen anything like it before.

Tomorrow is the 4th of July, and we are going to open for business. It's going to be our best summer in years. If you're so concerned about the beaches, you two, you do whatever you have to to keep them safe, but with you or without you, those beaches will be open for this weekend.
