Redhead is one of my local surf spots. There is a ton of bait fish about at the moment and the yackers are out and about. Redhead is usually pretty good for sharks but is at the northern end of Nine Mile Beach. So there is a big bight for the fish to gather. Further north at Stockton, it is a great white breeding ground. I don’t surf there anymore.

There always there, it’s just whether or not they’re inquisitive or not as to if they take a sample out of ya!!!!!

I don’t know how many times that I have been in the water and had a dolphin surface within meters of me, yet I hadn’t spotted a glimpse of them before hand!!!!!

Sharks would be no different, and they rarely surface when they are checkin out a potential target!!!!!
