When I fished for makos from my boat we had a rule that when the mako takes the bait and is hooked, move the boat away from the area the shark got hooked as always the mako would jump at or hit the boat. They still hit the boat, but at least it prevented them from landing in the boat with their initial jump.

I also that mako's were primarily fish eaters, but this video taken in July off Catalina shows that the big mako's like their red meat:
