great white

I wouldn't want to be wading around in there

Maybe someone could make a chum slick all the way to the back side to take care of all the seals

They already pulled a half a seal carcass off Nauset beach a couple weeks ago - a huge seal bitten in half by a great white. Locals saw it and not much was spoken about it.

I'm surprised there aren't more sighted along the outer beaches with all the damn seals out there. Either that or like Slip said it's just not talked about...

Roughly a dozen to 15 great white sharks annually migrate up and down the East Coast as water temperatures rise and fall because "they like 50-degree water," McKiernan said.

Would all the tree-huggers have a heart attack if I went out and caught it ?
Are Great Whites a protected species on the east coast ?
We catch them in California all the time.
Great on the BBQ

Big article in the Boston Herald. Shows two guys in kayaks. They look like giant surface plugs!

If I don't have anything to do with the water, It ain't worth doing.

Hey, I'm talking 20 years ago. Great Whites are like Bunker up by San Francisco. Nobody cared. We wouldn't kill em or anything. I mean what would you do with it?
There was a guy in San Diego 2 years ago that caught and killed a Great White from a kayak. Didn't hear anybody beefing about it.

No, we didn't eat them. Just playing with you.
We did used to catch them out by the Farallon Islands when I was in High School though. This was 24 years ago. I gather that it's illegal to kill a Great White, but is it illegal to catch and release it? Is it one of those, you can't target the species deal ?
I searched the regulations for federal atlantic fisheries and found
"A person may fish for white sharks with rod and reel, provided the person releases such fish immediately with a minimum of injury and that such fish may not be removed from the water."
