That would be the perfect world.

The world where smokers who caught cancer couldnt use our public health systems.

Cos they were warned.

Not sure whos been telling you tales Coops but GNS can head as far wide as they want. Not to start any kind of debate on their numbers, as that would demand a thread itself. Fish traps placed in the 120m line along the east coast regularly take gns, dont even get me started on deep sea trawlers. Fis...

As far as I know winter has by far the highest rainfall, wouldnt that mean that it would have the highest stormwater runoff? All the lagoons I know of get opened much more in winter than in the summer months. Predators hang around in the surf zone, before the lagoons breach their banks to join the o...

While there may have been large numbers of whites at stocko in the past, at present there arent any as the salmon schools arent there. They have moved on chasing the schools for the time being, no doubt they will be back once the food arrives, but as said, at present there arent any. Source: recent ...

Tigers are a different story.

As for GWS, I wouldnt use the word consumed Coops, Never has there been a case where someone has been consumed. Kind of odd isnt it when people call whites "Maneaters".

All in all, some scary muthas!

A point of interest... There has never been a recorded incident of a GWS eating a person. Plenty of limbs have turned up and deaths as a result of an attack have happened but never has an incident occurred where a GWS has eaten a person. This is why scientists suggest that it is a case of mistaken i...

You guys (chrisb and nick carrol ) are very quick to suggest that the nets must be working as there havent been as many attacks as in the past.

Have any of you thought that there might be less sharks?

Dolphins dont get caught in shark nets. They are way too smart. Word on the street is the resident salmon schools along stocko have left leaving the whites travelling up and down the coast looking for food. I spotted a Juvo last week at swr while spearing a bair ball between fishrock and blackrock. ...

Just for the record: Any craft not being used for a rescue is not allowed to enter or exit in between the flags. If you have a problem, or notice a surfboat, board or ski in the flags for purposes other than a rescue. Say something to the club captain. Bitching about it on here does your cause no go...

For all you non believers its true. I have a spearo dvd which clearly shows a roo going into the water (open beach) up to its head, does a little top and tail, then gets out and heads back to the scrub.

Available at most good spearo stores - immersion 2 by liquid focus

Im a super keen spearo, Dived the coral sea many times and regularly dive more thank 10kms offshore in summer. I personally dont believe in shark sheilds. I have encountered many sharks and body signals are your best defence. If you panic they know, they can sense your heart rate. Act calm and try a...
