MIAMI (CBSMiami) – A local fisherman made quite the find in the waters off Miami Beach on Wednesday.

The well-known charter boat captain, "Mark the Shark," came across what he claimed was a brick of cocaine about two miles off the coast while on a fishing trip.

Mark says in all of his years doing what he does, he's never come across something like this.

He said he called the Coast Guard, who came and took the bale.

The Coast Guard is testing the contents to determine what's inside.
