THIS is the shocking moment hundreds of hungry sharks swarmed around a boat.<\/p>\n
Incredible footage shows the beasts frantically thrashing around the vessel off the coast of Venice, Louisiana,\u00a0as stunned fishermen watch on.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Dillion May and his girlfriend Kaitlyn Dix were on the hunt for yellowfin tuna when suddenly their boat became surrounded by sharks.<\/p>\n
The fisherman thought at first the chaotic scenes was a tuna boil – a feeding frenzy that makes the water look like it's boiling.<\/p>\n
Thinking he could snare a few fish easily, May drove the boat towards the commotion.<\/p>\n
He was shocked to find dozens of sharks chasing a large menhaden pod so vigorously water splashed onto the boat.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
May told Storyful: " Then we saw it was sharks on a bait pod, never seen anything like it.<\/p>\n
"No shrimp boats were in sight either.<\/p>\n
"By the time we got there, the sharks had found the pod and pushed them up against the boat to feast on them."<\/p>\n
Footage shows countless grey fins thrashing about in the water as the frenzied sharks feast around the boat.<\/p>\n
