For those interested, here are some stats from the DPI tagging program.
(Non target species include grey nurse, various whalers, rays, and a mako)
(The Coffs and Forster programs started in Jul-Aug 17)

They are all juvey/sub-adults. I think the largest was caught in Evans around the 4m mark.

There was another incident at Avoca this afternoon - young doctor got bit on the shoulder - reported as a minor incident. Happened off the lagoon - not sure if it’s open at the moment, Terrigal lagoon is open. A 3m white was spotted around the area afterward, but I doubt it was the same animal.

Just an exploratory nip.

it looked more like a frisky southern fin tuna tried to nuzzle up to him, than it did a shark.

My brother caught a tuna like that once. He was standing on a beach casting soft plastics to try and get a flattie for breakfast when a Mack tuna beached itself at his feet chasing some baitfish and started humping his leg.
