    In the same area i fell from the back of an anchored boat and I was back on board for less than a minute when a small Bronzy, about 4ft, surfaced next to the boat. Another time fishing in the same area I watched the fin of what I think was a good Hammerhead swim by a few times. While trolling between Pulbah is. and Galgabba pt., I've had a Bull shark (about 6ft.) swim past me in the opposite direction about 6ft. from the boat. The water end of that jetty in the clip is about 10ft. deep. They're out there and I reckon it's only a matter of time.

    More Shark Activity.

    Another sighting yesterday of a Great White shark breaching from the water near Pulbah Island at the southern end of Lake Macquarie. Pulbah Island is just off Murray's Beach and it may be the same shark that was sighted there a couple of days ago.

    The fishermen who took this video were in a 14' tinny and I think they were a bit concerned.

    Good footage.
    Did anyone notice that in the last line of the newspaper report it states " and the fishermen lost site of it". How sad

    No worries DM, it was an interesting read. I have never heard of a Greenland shark.

    Hey Saitch, yeah it is sad when a newspaper from a large regional city gets spelling errors.
