McCormack said the shark, which he captured on video, appeared to be about as long as his 12-foot boat.
"It totally freaked me out," he told One News Now. "I was trembling like a schoolgirl. I was totally adrenalized, mate."
He said the shark broke his line, stole his catch, and knocked into his boat with its tail before swimming away.
McCormack said the shark was the first great white he has encountered in his 30 years of fishing.
