MAKO's
Me mate has had 2 Mako's eye ball him while diving the back of the 5 this year.
Big Black Eyes and curious he said , the big toothy criters weren't even detured
by a Shark Shield and he had to poke them away with his Gun...

Personally!
I dive at 5 fathom a lot, it's like all spots as far as a potential shark cruising around but far and few between IMO
If your a spero then you've got more chance of a visit, a floating fish line will help seperate you. I've got a Shark Sheild for diving in northern waters like Exmouth. My mates that have used them a lot swear by them!

agree!
Yeh agree Matt, ppl say to me you dive out there your mad, i say you drive on the road your mad.....they look at me like what the hell do you mean
Yep more chance of a car accident but that doesn't stop us from driving, dive safe and respect the water and you'll be fine!

Shark Shields?
I am also a diver here in South Africa and there are many sharks here, but if you look them in the eye and jerk your body unnattually they usually swim away, but what and how do these Shark Shields work?
