It's a bunch of marine biologists holed up on a big ass ship for months on end.
Some only see land for brief stops to refill the tank with gas and that's that.
Of course, there's always a mix of sea-farers who drive the chartered vessels while the nerds do their business in the ocean.

Sometimes, they can't go back to shore for weeks and weeks.

So what else are you supposed to do when your supply of bait runs low and you are expected to make a deadline for your doctumentary.
How could you possibly tell the incredibly world famous narrator you have no footage, because you ran out of chum and couldn't fish up anymore because of the dire lack of bait?
Late at night, after the decision is made, most of them will turn to the captain of the ship or the deckhands.
There are plenty of tools to do the job with.

Fishhooks.
Wire.
Camera gear.
Various heavy items such as oars and drink coolers.

Anything for the hungry sharks circling deep below, waiting for the inevitable human remains.

In the end, it's just the natural order of events out on the water.
When you are faced with strict film requirements such as great white shark breaches that happen in mere milliseconds, you get desperate; frightened.
