Two men out enjoying a day of fishing off the coast of Destin, Fla., were afforded a surprise encounter with the world’s largest fish species.
Kauffman said he had seen whale sharks before during a visit to the Galapagos Islands, but never in the Gulf of Mexico. “Within the shelf region of the northern Gulf, they’re uncommon and five miles from shore is pretty close,” Graeber said. “As the largest fish species in the world, the fisherman had a pretty awesome encounter and maybe a once in a lifetime experience.”
