It looks like the OEX Pros knew what they were doing with the camo kayaks, (I never said they didn't). This company sells anti-shark decals for the bottom of your surfboard.

Sharks don't like zebras?

They are also extremely fearful of the gnu, or if you prefer, wildebeest.

3 foot surf scares me more than 12 foot sharks I am charging up the head cam for tomorrow!

Y'all know me. Know how I earn a livin'. I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy. Bad fish. Not like going down to the pond and chasing bluegills and tommycocks. This shark, swallow you whole. No shakin', no tenderizin', down you go. And we gotta do it quick, that'll bring back your tourists, put all your businesses on a payin' basis. But it's not gonna be pleasant. I value my neck a lot more than three thousand bucks, chief. I'll find him for three, but I'll catch him, and kill him, for ten. But you've gotta make up your minds. If you want to stay alive, then ante up. If you want to play it cheap, be on welfare the whole winter. I don't want no volunteers, I don't want no mates, there's too many captains on this island. Ten thousand dollars for me by myself. For that you get the head, the tail, the whole damn thing.

It may be a marlin or a stingray...but it's definitely a game fish...

the hands unite to form a single unit by the simple overlap of the little finger..then lowly and slowly the clubhead led back pulled into position not by the hands, but by the body..which turns away from the target shifting weight to the right side without shifting balance..tempo is everything perfection unattainable as the body coils now theres a slight hesitation...a little nod to the gods...and now the weight begins shifting back to the left pulled by the powers inside the earth, its alive this swing a living sculpture..then down through contact always down...

oh wait wrong movie... :lol:

munched seal
 
Brought wife and 3yr old son down to the childrens cove to look at the seals that shouldnt be there. I knew he would enjoy it. Got there around 10am and started telling my wife how a yakker spotted a white shark recently and that these plump little turds are great shark bait. A few minutes later a seal comes flying out of the water and up the beach in a big hurry. As it flopped up the beach in pain it was evident why it had done so. There was an oval shaped bite mark about the size of a hula hoop around the seals mid section. The top portion of the bite was very deep and a good chunk was missing. The seal was bleeding pretty bad. A seagul immediately noticed the injury and began plucking away at the shredded wound tearing off chunk by chunk. The seal could not do too much about being plucked to death. Each time the seagul tore off a piece of flesh the seal would wince in pain and the bleeding would increase.

The seal got it in the mid section and it looks like the shark attacked it from underneath, shark week style.

Any how just wanted to share since I have only seen seal corpses on the beach and never a fresh soon to be dead victim. There was a crowd forming so we took off before finding out whether or not Sea World came by to put this seal out of its misery.

I did notice a few scuba divers surfacing just outside the childrens cove and many swimmers outside LJ cove as usual. Gotta think its just a matter of time before someone gets it.

Seems like the GW is just at the size that it is switching from fish to furry and is not a very good hunter yet. I am not at all worried about the shark, paddling above the water, but I agree that the swimmers may become a victim of mistaken identity.

tylerdurden 01-18-2007 09:11 AM

And Sea World probably tried to save the thing too :roll: . They should let nature take its course. Seagulls gotta eat too. I haven't seen this one on the news yet. Last I heard about sharks in the news was the dead seal in OB.
