Bluefish have sharp teeth and are predators to smaller fish. They can be a good sign to people fishing as it means there are likely smaller fish in the area.

However, large groups of bluefish can attract even bigger fish, like sharks.

The video was shared to YouTube by photographer Joanna Steidle.
