Default Breach

Was drifting this morning about 500 yards east of the tip of the Navy Pier when 50 feet off my stern a 3 1/2 to 4 ft shark breached. Not sure what type as it showed me it's bright white belly only. I am sure it was not a Thresher though. Was pretty cool experience and the slap it made was loud.

It was probally a Sturgeon Rats they have been going airborne for the past month from West Bank to the Ammo Pier. Some small but have seen them over 6 foot going completely out of the water and the splash is impossible to not hear lol. Pretty cool stuff!!!

Fins wrong for a Sturgeon. I've seen plenty of Sturgeon breaches in the Delaware.
