702+ Pound Blue Caught at Miss. Gulf Coast Billfish Classic
They say records are meant to be broken. If that's the case, sportfishing history was made on June 10 when four blue marlin were brough to the scales at the Point Cadet Marina during the first day of the 15th annual Mississippi Gulf Coast Billfish Classic. This is the first time that many blues were weighed on the first day scales were open.
Cole Casady of Corpus Christi, TX was the biggest winner so far after he and his team weighed in a 702.5-pound blue.

I'm skeptical and don't think this photo is real. Great whites always close their eyes when attacking prey to avoid injury. In this picture, the shark's eyes are wide open.
that is one acrobatic shark!
I'm all for people being skeptical,...but you think a photo isn't real because the shark doesn't have it's eyes closed. Come on man!
All shark species have a membrane that rolls back over the eye to protect it during feeding; they don't 'close' in the manner that ours do, so they'll still look like they're open.
If you enlarge the photo, the fish's eyes actually are closed. What you are seeing is the membrane that beardog mentioned.
the picture is 100% real , i saw that shark on a documentary film with the same prey
same shark same documentary film
