awesome shots! not in qld I hope? daaa da daaaa da daa da da da
Nope just more wildlife with sharp teeth in QLD.
It's seasonal for me!
I'm migrator!
What I want is JB to have all the waves to him.
PLEASE surf everyday. As you said is good for you that people are scared from sharks so you don't need to share the line up.
You could also accept the invite to spearfish in SA someone called for a partner in another thread.
Because we need more lambs to be sacrificed to finally bring common sense back and kick start actions to the problem (reduce the number of the GW's lurking close to the coast).
Enjoy the Waves and your destiny.
Don't say hello to Mr. Fin for me.

Why don't you clue me up then????? My guess is as good as yours as neither of us is a scientist or GWS expert, btw telling me to stay out of the water doesn't change the facts that GWS attacks have dramatically increased in the last 20 years, have a stab in the dark at what might have caused that!!! Ps there is not too many options on the answer.
Why should i clue you up, why not go ask a professional shark marine biologist on and shark inter species behaviour, especially whilst feeding. Again ill say, clearly sharks are not out looking to eat humans.. Do they from time to time? Yes. As Juan Oliphant explained to me, "I hate Brussel sprouts, but if I'm starving lets face it, ill eat anything" 
Theres could be lots of answers to the shark problem. Its just you only want to think it yours.
SO your answer is that the fact we are seeing more sharks can only be due to an increase in numbers.. Well could it not be that we are seeing more sharks close to shore, that in fact the numbers have not increased but the feeding habits of the sharks has changed and they are coming closer and staying closer longer due to their food having changed..More seals in close than ever before. Seal Colonies are now all year round were they were once only seasonal. Water temp changes due to currents moving closer to shore or offshore also changing feed. Just before we had at the spike in attacks, we also were catching fish in metro and southern WA in unprecedented success, that were previously never found this far south.
SO a total change has presented it self in our local ecosystem yet you say an increase in great whites could only be due to one thing..Very short sightedness..

Maybe we need sharks more than ever before.
Be careful surfing around seals

It seems that sharks would scoop the pool if they entered the Olympics

Two classic quotes from that article:
"To avoid a celebrity being eaten on live television, the shark was computer-generated,..."
"I honestly feel so robbed that I just watched an hour of a stupid show to see Michael Phelps race a FAKE shark..."

I never said anything like that, you have made some very good points which may or may not be valid, I also agree with some of them, but to protect a species like the GWS and think their numbers won't increase with all these seals would be very shortsighted
^^^^ That reminds me of a surf I had at the alki. Big day with a light onshore, I was solo and there was lots of this white stuff floating in the water. Couldn't work out what it was at first, looked like a cross between cotton wool and foam. I finally picked up a piece, whale blubber.

You've got to wonder about the validity of these public reports 
It turns out the 15 or so sharks was a pod of dolphins
Holly Molly ! I was in water at Jun Juc yesterday and saw a big dolphin swimming by...now I am not sure what it was..
