Having been on a 25ft bertram with a 20ft great white circling the boat with the owner of the boat beating the water with a kingfish frame saying he wants to hand feed it nothing suprises me anymore

He is a past president of gfaa and held many records for sharks when you could fish for great whites. I love his stories round the bbq about fishing in the 60, s and 70, s he is in his 70, s and still fishes out of bermagui in his 36ft blackwatch.

Well he probably knows what he is doing then but you wouldn't catch me doing that,mind you l have no experience with sharks.
l reckon your right his stories would be pretty awsome to listen to.

The first mulloway I ever caught, I'd forgotten to bring a net so my brother thumb gripped it by the jaw ... it didn't turn out well either! Generally putting your fingers in a fishes' mouth isn't a great idea ...
