Jeff Swartz and his sons were visiting the Keys from Sarasota FL and wanted to have a sharkin' adventure. Capt. Chris Johnson of SeaSquared Charters out of the 7 Mile Marina in Marathon took them to his favorite spot in about 5 feet of calm water off the 7 Mile Bridge. They anchored up only to be joined by a bunch of lobster-hunting snorkelers. If only they knew they were sharing the water with some very toothy critters! Once the snorkelers dispersed, a large sting ray approached the boat. They caught it, and the waters really came to life with shark activity. In all they caught 5 lemon sharks ranging in size from 4 to 6.5 feet. The sting ray and all sharks were released unharmed.
