Environment Details
Zero wind, very high plankton levels, Gannets diving. Can't tell exactly how many sharks there were because they were spread over an area of about a mile but roughly 10-12. Some were curious and approached the boat, other kept a very good distance. I didn't get any pictures but I did manage to live stream some of it including 1 shark passing under the boat https://www.periscope.tv/SeaAnglers1/1RDGlOgrrgzKL (3:45). I drifted for approx an hour with them.
