Another shark has been seen during this summer's recreational fishery.

Megan Greening, who was taking part in the food fishery this week, captured a short video of a shark in Fish Cove, near Musgravetown.

Greening told CBC that her group noticed the shark playing with some driftwood, and thinks it may have caught the scent of the fish and came over to investigate.

She said it circled the boat for awhile, gave those in the boat abit of a show, then swam away.
