I've had a light moment
Why don't whales and dolphins attack humans? You know we all sit out there and if we see them whales or dolphins we look in ore at how cool they are and not worry one second of fear they will come eat us like a shark.

Easy because we are not a tasty morsel of Laceybacon on a 17 foot stick of celery mmmm I think he will smash me for that worth every penny
Check out the size of this beast hanging not too far from where OB and MR surf on a regular basis

Funny you say that. I watched a bunch of dolphins pass near some surfers off Merewether a few months ago and hiding in behind them was a shark. I dont think one of the surfers saw it.
This morning when I was paddling my ski, a bunch of dolphins came straight for me and the first thing I thought was where is that shark?

Yep,on my local beach,he was swimming,the Westpac chopper has just left,no details whether it was a local bloke or not.
just a couple of weeks ago a dolphin washed up behind that beach with chunks bitten out of it,I better go surfing somewhere else for a while,it's getting a bit close to home!...
Edit:just heard he was a 65 year old on a surf ski....
As above/below...seriously time to reconsider shark protection...wasn't due to consideration of being an endangered species...claimed by marine biologists...time to take the farkers off the list...obviously!!!
Just seen fb 'shark reports' post two gws at byron close to surfers /swimmers.the Pass and clarks.
Hope they dont come up here
The Blackhead biter has been identified as a juve GW, the same as the bite that happened at Salty earlier in the year....these 2 locations are in site of each other...could it be the SAME? shark? ? ?

They have tagged something like 250 juveniles and estimate there is a 1000 lapping the east coast.
Could it be the same, sure it could but there are heaps of them around and a solid breeding ground 100km ish south and they move north so that area would be well populated.
Went to Byron Bay 10/9 to 18/9.
Kook on a SUP, I kept to the end of Clarkes, away from everyone.
Plenty out at the Pass, didn't feel sharkey at all.
With the numbers out there, odds have to be good you won't get bitten.
Went out every morning and afternoon, had a ball.
Too busy getting hammered by the board or the bottom to worry about big fish.
Got spooked one morning paddling outside the break, very deep, clear water, lots of fish.
Ran away.
Lots of fish in the water, last day I was there whales in the bay.
Just lots of marine life which is a good thing.
Live with it.
Didn't go in the last afternoon with at least 3 whales breaching 500 metres off shore.
Decided there was enough marine life without me adding to it.
Heard Ballina was closed the day I got back to safe, cold, Melbourne.
Would rather risk it at Byron than play in the possibly now up to 13 degree water here
Just had a family in store on holidays from Ballina, they won't let there 11 and 15 year olds in the water down there hence the GC holiday
Why don't they make shark hunting a sport.
Just like duck season we have shark season.
Problem solved.
I saw a 5 fter coming in though the surf at north burleigh dw ing on thrusday.
When I got closer it took off.
Mind you I was very keen to have very clean ie not fall off , wave coming in.
Cadet clubbies were just heading out too.
I think it was a 'wobby' so I didnt do anything

Do you have your Surfsafe fitted yet
If so what are your thoughts so far
Ni I havent. I was looking at the coastalwatch reviews they stated if you have any heart conditions , high blood pressure you need to see your medical specialist about it. The systems with electrical fields.
Has put a dampener on it even tho I dont have any problems I still have had a quadruple bi pass so ill would have to see my cardio man first by the looks of it
Cool was curious that's all.
That's just part of the warnings on the product sheets. It's the same for shark shield and many similar products. More of a disclaimer.
