Shark ventures into harbour, steals mackerel from lines

A peckish shark has been spotted snatching mackerel off people’s hooks on the Liverpool, N.S., waterfront. Witnesses say the roughly 1.5-metre shark swam under a popular harbour bridge and into the estuary, grabbing mackerel right off their lines, along with their bait. Lyndon Mooers was fishing Tuesday night when he says he watched the shark grab the mackerel off three or four people’s lines. The shark sighting caused a stir in Liverpool, with local officials putting up warnings on the dock where people fish and swim.
