I posted this story last year, but since we're on the topic of sharks:

Was in Blackbeard's out on the Cape last year one morning talking to the guy working the register. He said that one of their regulars had been at Coast Guard beach towards sunset the previous night and had seen two large sharks(the guy estimated them at 12 feet very conservatively, saying one might have been up to 15 feet) feeding viciously on a group of seals. Blood in the water, ripping the seals up, like you see on Discovery channel. All this only yards off the beach. All this second hand, but he said it was a regular customer and I'm not sure why anyone would lie about something like that. Also, I'm no shark expert but there are only a few sharks that get that big in these waters.....I guess maybe whites & makos? Not sure if bulls get that big or not.

Anyway, I've only recently started wading out as far as I was the day before I heard that story.
