Sightings:  Great White Sharks, Bronze whalers, 

Location: Joubertsdam

Water Temperature: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

We launched quite early today in order to be out of the water before the winds and swell picked up! As soon as we got to our dive location, we quickly geared up and started to wait for our sharks to arrive, which took them almost no time to do. The first shark that appeared out of the waves was a juvenile 2.5m female great white, and straight after her we were lucky enough to witness our beloved Clampy, 4.5m shark with a big bite mark on her left cheek. Just as we got our third cage in, Shaun came up and gave some nice deep passes along the cage, always nice to see him coming to us. A small bronze whaler tried to go for our lines but then disappered pretty quickly. And just as we were finishing up we got purselves a fourth shark, 3.3m male who looks very similar to Shaun.
