Ocean Reef Great White Shark!

just heard this on ABC radio, some fellas had a Great White...uh...Experience off Ocean Reef. some pics on the abc website listed below. the dudes reckoned it was well over 5m and checked them out for 20 minutes or so!! they chucked some fish bits in the water but it wasnt interested...maybe it was just trying to work out how to get the juicy pink filling out of the crunchy fibreglass shell...!!

anyone else seen one of these beasts off Perth? or anywhere?

the first report sed it was at the beach and it was only 3m then they sed it was in 15 meteres of water then they sed it was 15minutes out of ocean reef which is quite a fair way and they sed and i qoute "it  was hunting innocent swimmers in the area" wich i find extremely hard to believe that it would hunt swimmers as that is just a stupid cliche'.

Hi Ya,

Funny how a shark 'stalks' a boat, but a 'whale' comes for a visit.

Cheers.
