    This is insane! Sharks are in my top 3 fears. They are pretty much the reason I don't snorkel or scuba even though I would love to.

    Hopefully those sharks don't scare all the fish out of your fishing spot!

    you just need to learn about them then you will feel safe i might go to a camp next year with this program called broadreach to south africa on seal island and go cage diving with great whites!!!. this is the same program that i did this summer except i went to baja mexico and dove on reefs and wrecks. i highly suggest them to people alot of amzing experiences. it was an experience of a life time for me. heres the link. gobroadreach.com

    :eek: Quick, flop around like an injured seal. lol
    Without Dave Attenborough narrating this, its just not the same.
    Cool video though. Very good point about predators and recognizing patterns.
    The question is, was that baby little tail slap on the dudes board when it swam away a sign that the shark concluded they are not food. or did it come back, again.........

    I go ocean Kayaking all the time off the coast from Santa Barbara to San Diego. I've seen some pretty big Leopards and Thershers but that scares the hell out of me. To tell you the truth the thing that scares me the most is Sea Lions, they are mean!
