There was dolphins? In that case you would be fine mate.

Yeah fair balls Ricky, I kinda forgot about the rough trot you have had lately. Good on you mate.

^^ Yeah thanks. It's actually coming up to a year ago things started going badly downhill, and didn't let up for about 4 months. I'm determined not to let it happen again

I always figured they feed on similar fish so if there's dolphins there'd be sharks too. Do they bugger off when the dolphins are around? (I feel I should know more about this but to be honest I never really thought much about sharks until the regular attacks started a few years ago).

Good to hear Ricky, you seem like a nice guy and I hope you get the better of it.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
For me one time they got my attention by coming in about 40m above me, one guy leaning right out of the side door obviously screaming "get the fcuk out of there" and gesticulating wildly to let me know there was a shark about 30m from me (newspapers said 3.1m great white). The shark had been tracking over to me from about 500m away.RickyG wrote: ↑Sat Sep 23, 2017 6:59 pmInteresting you mention that. I was out there again this morning (lumpy and wind-affected). A couple of locals pointed out a chopper off to the north buzzing around. 'That's the shark-spotter'. There was a heap of birds and dolphins having a feast on bait fish out the back, and with the chopper hanging around I decided to head in, wondering how they communicate if they spot a shark. As I was walking through the dunes the chopper came right down and they announced on a speaker that there was shark in the river (I'd be surprised if there wasn't).
Even better I was there with my son this afternoon pushing him onto a few waves on my longboard. Probably should have gone elsewhere

Had a paddle at The Bra. Nice conditions for the midlength/ minimal.

Looking forward to hunting out some banks the next decent swell/wind combo. These northerlies look like they've been shifting heaps of sand around here.
Re: Where did you surf today ?
You must be a leadfoot, brendo.
They have had good sand for quite some time though. Always a fun trip. It's been mostly shit here since the debbie floods.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
I'm referring to the 3.5km of beach that is exposed to Sth swell. Had it's moments, but mostly been a shambles.
When the banks are good on that stretch, then between your joint and here, there's good waves to be had just about everyday.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
yeah, but that isn't the only stretch that picks up S swell....it's just the biggest.
few other corners and coves that have been making beautiful music with it over winter.
